Overview

"Painterly Portraits" Sip & Paint Night at Bistro on the Quay. Paint a Masterpiece of your Partner, Bestie or Yourself

PAINTERLY PORTRAITS

Paint your partner, bestie or yourself- At Bistro On The Quay, Ipswich

A relaxed, laugh-first paint night — no experience needed

🎭 WHAT IS PAINTERLY PORTRAITS?

Painterly Portraits is a playful, low-pressure paint night where perfection is not the goal — expression, connection and a good giggle are.

This is not a serious art class.

This is an evening designed to help you switch off, loosen up and paint people, not masterpieces.

You’ll be guided step-by-step to create a simple, painterly portrait of:

• 💕 your partner

• 👯 your bestie

• 🪞 or yourself (yes, solo painters are very welcome)

Bold shapes. Block-colour backgrounds. A little wonkiness.

If it looks “interesting”… you’re doing it right.

🎨 HOW THE NIGHT FLOWS

We’ll keep things relaxed and friendly:

1. A gentle warm-up to shake off perfectionism

2. Clear, easy guidance from me (with lots of reassurance)

3. Plenty of time to paint, chat, laugh and sip your drink

4. Everyone leaves with a finished portrait they’re oddly proud of

No pressure. No comparisons. No “talent” required.

✨ WHAT’S INCLUDED

✔ All painting materials provided

✔ Step-by-step guidance (beginner-friendly)

✔ A relaxed, social atmosphere

✔ A finished canvas to take home

✔ A proper mood lift midweek

🍷 THE VIBE

Think:

• Warm bar setting

• Fairy lights, chatter, laughter

• Paint on tables, not pressure on shoulders

• That lovely feeling of “I’m really glad I came”

Painterly Portraits is creativity as connection, not performance.

🧠 THE REASSURING BIT (IMPORTANT)

“I’m not arty.”

Perfect. This is exactly for you.

“What if mine looks bad?”

Then it’s working.

“Do I need to come with someone?”

No — painting yourself is surprisingly powerful (and funny).

🎟️ BOOKING INFO

Spaces are limited to keep the night cozy, friendly and fun.

Come for the painting.

Stay for the laughs.

Leave with a portrait you’ll never quite look at the same way again.

👉 Book your place now — we’d love to have you.

Pls note: Food and drinks are to be purchased separately. The ticket price does not include this.
