“Really enjoyed this painting class! It was in Katya’s studio which made it super authentic and cool. She’s a great artist and teacher. Can’t recommend enough!”
“We were slightly disappointed by our sip and paint class on saturday. To start, the room we were in was difficult to find with no clear signs. When we arrived we didn’t get an introduction from the teacher as the previous class was over running. Whilst we waited for the class to finish, three other people who had got there just before us has been offered a “glass” (paper cup) of wine, we didn’t get this offer. When we finally sat down for the class (about 15-20mins late), our teacher seemed very rushed and was evidently ill with a nasty cough. She gave us a brief intro and mentioned that she would come round and help us with any questions we had. We were all served wine and very simple snacks (plain crisps on a paper plate). We did get taught how to mix paints which was fun. However, when we got given the paint brushes, they had seen better days. The teacher then disappeared and kind of left us all to it with no help like she had previously mentioned. All in all, the class could do with a little face lift- maybe some reusable plastic wine glasses, some music in the background, or even some candles/ fairy lights on the table just create a bit of atmosphere and ambience.”
“Dear Katerina,
I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for making my 50th birthday sip and paint party an absolute delight! Coordinating a group of 36 people is no small feat, and you handled the event with exceptional professionalism, patience, and creativity.
Your instruction was clear, engaging, and made everyone feel comfortable, regardless of their artistic experience. The way you guided us through the bento painting technique was both informative and fun, ensuring that each participant felt proud of their unique creation. Your enthusiasm was contagious, and you transformed what could have been a challenging group activity into a memorable and enjoyable experience.
The step-by-step guidance, your supportive approach, and ability to keep such a large group motivated and on track were truly impressive. You made my milestone birthday celebration extra special, creating lasting memories for me and all of my guests.
Thank you for your outstanding work and for making my 50th birthday celebration so extraordinary!
Warmest regards,
Bolaji Adewale”
“Really enjoyed this class. Not just a basic paint along to instructions, we were encouraged to paint something unique, taught about mixing colours. Everyone painted something different which was a lot of fun.”
