Give yourself an afternoon with nothing to do but paint.

Join Bath-based artist Jo Slade for a relaxed, beautifully taught acrylic workshop in the barn. Jo trained in Fine Art at Brighton and is known for her vibrant, impressionist paintings of landscapes, starry skies and florals. Her work is all about atmospheric light and colour, and she’ll bring that same warmth to the session.

You’ll paint a botanical still life, with Jo guiding you step by step. No experience needed, and complete beginners are very welcome. It’s about enjoying the process rather than making something perfect.

There are three hours of painting time, with a break in the middle for tea, cake and a chance to chat with the other women. All materials are provided, so you only need to turn up.

This afternoon is an invitation to step away from the everyday rush, put your phone down and spend a few hours on yourself.

Limited to 12 places.

Who this is for

This is for you if you’re ready to do something just for you. If you’ve been meaning to make time for yourself and haven’t quite got there yet, this is your sign. If you’re craving real connection with women who feel like your kind of people, with no small talk and no pressure to impress.

Paint boldly. Paint softly. Somewhere in between. Chat all afternoon or happily lose yourself in the colours. Come once or make it part of your rhythm.

You don’t need to know anyone. You don’t need to be “good at art,” or to have touched a paintbrush since school. You just need to show up, and we’ll take care of the rest.
