“As a total newby, Julia is brilliantly instructive and incredibly supportive throughout. Lovely chilled evening and brilliant results! Can’t recommend Mino Paint and Sip enough!”

Lesley - Facebook

“Fabulous experience all round. Great evening even though we’d not done anything like this since school days! Relaxed, enjoyable and all the resources you need. It was great to give it a go and experience the freedom of painting without expectation. Totally liberating and I’ve painted since.”
