PLAYLIST PAINT NIGHT
Now offering PRIVATE & PUBLIC social events
-
ENJOY
Whether you choose to host a Private Event in the comfort of your own home or join me at a Public Social paint night, you’ll be in good company with great food and drinks. I make sure to pick venues within Nanaimo that I’ve not only been to, but that I’ve enjoyed. I love supporting small businesses and I can’t wait to invite you to some of my favourite spots in town.
-
SOCIALIZE
Spend 2.5 hours socializing with your closest friends at a private event or join a public social event and get to know new ones. We’ll spend this time going with the flow, taking a break to sip, chat, and enjoy one another’s company and artwork. No judgment and all levels are welcome. The point is to get out of the house, connect and create!
This is an adults only event.
-
CREATE
Immerse yourself in the music that gets you and your group vibing while you paint familiar coastal landscapes that span from Vancouver Island to the Sunshine Coast. Whether your group prefers the neutral colours of our coast, or the gentle glow of our sun, I have you covered with two great options (for now) which happen to be fan favourites.
Palette options: Cien OR Sunshine Coast Glow
-
LEARN
My easy step-by-step instruction paired with an intimate gathering of 10-12 will ensure you get one on one attention. Get to know me and my work as I take you through my experience in the art world and processes. We’ll begin by analyzing the composition of your painting to understand where paint goes and why, followed by simple steps to achieve the same effect which you see in my work.
You’ll learn a few things, and laugh, along the way.

I’ve been admiring the talented Magda Johnson’s fine art for years. Her west coast landscapes are everything. They take you away to a serene place when you want to stay for a while. So when I was invited to join her for a paint night, I was thrilled! Her direction, encouragement & techniques throughout the process of painting rathtrevor beach were incredible. Her skill as an artists is something to be desired. She is a beautiful person and I can’t wait to join her for the next one!
