Paint & Sip
What art for adults could be more relaxing than a painting class? A painting class with wine, maybe.
Bring your friends, your spouse or yourself to paint and sip after a long day on the Greenway. A fun way to end a day........... enjoy a glass or two while you paint your own masterpiece. Minimum number of 4 required. We supply everything, you bring the wine. You can paint a still life, try your hand at a whacky self-portrait or even do some watercolour painting incorporating pressed wild flowers!
A Paint & Sip class is actually an informal art class where, without the pressure of fine art lessons, people without any painting experience can paint a painting from start to finish. To make the experience even more relaxed, the guests can have a glass or two of good wine, Prosecco, a cocktail or any non-alcoholic beverage.
All you do is call and book your evening
Cost: €65pp and includes all your materials and a selection of snacks and canapes.
Advanced Acrylic Pour Works
In this workshop you will take your Acrylic Pour to a whole new level.
Advanced Acrylic pouring is an acrylic painting technique or fluid art where you literally pour fluid paint onto the painting surface (canvas, wooden panel, or board) creating intricate and unusual patterns.
Using advanced acrylic pouring techniques will allow you to apply high fluidity paint in various ways to a canvas or other substrate of your choice. The fluid painting techniques in this workshop are extremely enthralling and the various methods can lead to vastly different results. When poured onto the canvas or surface, the imbalance of different paint densities creates interesting and visually stunning reactions.
The next Advanced workshop takes place on April 8th
Places are limited.
Cost: €60

Creative expressions helps clear our minds, but painting also promotes stress relief, memory capabilities, and emotional growth, and can even help slow aging and be used as a treatment against dementia. Painting has a kind of power which is difficult to describe unless you have felt it yourself.
So, why should you choose watercolors in particular?
Watercolor painting has an almost meditative effect. Mixing the colors, layering, and slowly working your way towards your own piece of art – it’s all very zen-like.
Not only that, but watercolors are also non-toxic and easy to clean if you ever run into any spills.
And, just as importantly, watercolors allow for a wide range of art styles. Whether you’re looking to paint realism, abstract art, traditional, or anything in between – watercolors will take you there.

Learn to draw and paint at the Greenway Lane studio - a fun, creative and ideal way to get to grips with basic techniques and create beautiful images.
We believe everyone can draw. Whether you are just starting off, returning to art after years without practice, or already have some knowledge of technique, our tutor will help you develop your skills and potential. All art supplies are provided by GLAS.
Students are taught the fundamental techniques of drawing and painting such as line, shading, colour mixing, composition and scale. They will achieve an understanding of form by first learning to draw different geometrical shapes and objects. They will then turn to painting and will be taught colour mixing techniques, colour values, and painting application techniques. Students will be introduced to the following media in our beginner's courses: graphite, charcoal, chalk pastel, oil pastel, oil paint, watercolour, and acrylic paint.
