Painting Without Pressure or Experience

Paint and Sip in Show Low for social gatherings, date nights, and beginner-friendly guided painting events

Step-by-step instruction during each session breaks down a featured painting into manageable stages, guiding participants through background washes, composition layout, and detail work without assuming prior painting experience. Kittle's Art & Supply hosts paint and sip events in Show Low that combine guided painting instruction with refreshments and wine in a relaxed studio setting. Friends, couples, and groups gather for creative evenings where everyone completes the same painting by following along with an instructor who demonstrates each brushstroke and color mix in real time.


The experience is designed for all skill levels, with instruction paced to accommodate first-time painters and those who haven't held a brush in years. You receive a pre-sketched canvas, all necessary paints and brushes, and verbal guidance through each stage of the painting process while enjoying beverages and socializing.


Reserve a spot for an upcoming paint and sip night to participate in a guided creative experience with no prior painting skills required.

What Happens During a Paint and Sip Event

Each event features a specific painting theme, often tied to seasonal imagery, local landscapes, or popular designs chosen for visual appeal and achievable execution within a two-hour session. The instructor demonstrates each step on a large canvas at the front of the studio while participants replicate the process at their individual easels. Instruction covers brush loading, blending techniques, and layering colors to build depth and dimension.


By the end of the session, you leave with a completed acrylic painting on canvas that's dry enough to transport home. The social environment encourages conversation, laughter, and creative expression without judgment, making it popular for celebrations, group outings, and casual gatherings. Kittle's Art & Supply provides the welcoming studio setting that balances structured guidance with room for personal interpretation.

Seasonal themes and community events bring local residents and visitors together for creative experiences that don't require artistic background or training. The format works equally well for solo attendees joining a public session or private groups booking the studio for birthdays, bachelorette parties, or corporate team-building activities.

Answers to Frequent Paint and Sip Questions

Participants from Show Low and surrounding mountain communities attend events throughout the year.

  • What should I expect during my first paint and sip?

    You'll receive a canvas with a light sketch of the featured painting, along with brushes, paints, and an apron. The instructor demonstrates each step while you follow along at your own pace, with assistance available throughout the session.

  • How does the instruction work if I've never painted before?

    The instructor breaks down each painting into simple stages, showing exactly which brush to use, how much paint to load, and where to place each stroke. Painting experience isn't necessary because the process is taught from the ground up during the event.

  • What refreshments are included?

    Paint and sip events at Kittle's Art & Supply include wine and light refreshments as part of the creative social experience. You're welcome to bring additional snacks or beverages depending on the event format.

  • When do I need to register for an event?

    Sessions fill based on studio capacity and seasonal demand in Show Low, especially during holidays and peak visitor months. Reserving your spot early ensures availability for your preferred date and painting theme.

  • Why do all participants paint the same image?

    The shared painting allows the instructor to provide step-by-step guidance that everyone can follow simultaneously, making the experience accessible to beginners while creating a cohesive group activity. Personal variations naturally emerge in color choices and brushwork.

Kittle's Art & Supply offers paint and sip events designed for social connection and creative fun without artistic prerequisites. Book your spot for an upcoming session to enjoy a guided painting experience in a relaxed studio atmosphere perfect for any occasion.
