The Paint Club Scotland

“If you hear a voice within you saying ‘you cannot paint’, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced” said Vincent Van Gogh. And who are we to argue?

In fact, all you really need to get going is some paint, a brush and a canvas. Add an atmospheric venue, a friendly instructor and a dash of beer or vino to that mix, and there will be no stopping you. Today’s Big Deal for a Pints & Painting evening at a historic Glasgow venue offers the lot. Your session will include art supplies, a professional artist instructor and either a beer, wine or soft drink. Needless to say, this would make a fabulous Christmas gift for anyone who’d love a chance to get creative (while maybe enjoying a cheeky tipple in the process).

Pints and paints

Today’s Big Deal offers an artistic experience that’s totally different from a prim and polite painting class.

Taking place in the atmospheric venues of either Tennent’s Wellpark Brewery or The Griffin pub, this will be a relaxed, banter-filled evening designed to boost the creative juices.

With the support of a professional art instructor, you’ll get to create a mantelpiece masterpiece while enjoying your lubrication of choice (beer, wine or a soft drink).

No experience is necessary, just enthusiasm and the ability to hold a brush in one hand and a glass in the other.


Your ticket will include one free drink, a canvas (which you can keep), paints, paintbrushes, a table easel and artistic instruction.
 And should you fancy topping up your glass, you can purchase more beverages at either venue.



Art with an atmosphere


As mentioned, your evening will take place in one of two history-soaked venues that have both become Glasgow institutions. 
Depending on which event you choose, you will be splashing your canvas at either Tennent’s Wellpark Brewery, which dates all the way back to 1740, or The Griffin pub, a popular pre-theatre drinking spot since 1904.



Wear your art on your sleeve


You can choose from the following four themed painting evenings, where you’ll get to try your hand at painting either an owl, a highland cow, a Valentine’s Day image or an umbrella:

Option 1: The Owl!
Tuesday, 16th January at Tennent’s

Get in touch with the wise old bird inside of you by creative a painting of the feathered sage (you’re welcome to nickname it Hedwig).

Option 2: The Highland Coo!
Monday, 22nd January at The Griffin

Scotland’s national animal might officially be the unicorn (yes, it’s true), but we reckon the humble highland cow deserves to be honoured too. This is your chance to do so with watercolours.

Option 3: Valentines Paint Night!
*Thursday, 15th February at Tennent’s
*

Show the love of your life how much you care by creating a romantic masterpiece just for them. This would also make a great evening out for a couple.

Option 4: The Umbrella!
Monday, 19th February at The Griffin

Rainy days won’t get you down again after you’ve showcased the humble umbrella in glorious technicolor.
