The Experience

You and your special someone have a zillion photos of each other, but none of them can compare to a hand-painted portrait that captures the true spirit of your love. Too bad you’re not artists…but wait, what if you were? Join professional art instructor Annie Monaghan for a romantic live virtual class where you’ll learn how to paint watercolor portraits of one another that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

  • Class will open with an intimate exercise of gazing into each other’s eyes for one full minute to connect deeply and dispel awkwardness—but don’t worry, a giggle or two is totally allowed. (If a long-distance partner is joining you virtually, you can do this exercise together using a separate device.)
  • Working with a favorite photograph, each of you will create a graphic transfer outline that’s enhanced by your live study of one another’s features.
  • No prior art experience is necessary—you’ll learn basic painting techniques and put them into practice right away as you color the outline, with Annie on hand to answer questions.
  • Make it an unforgettable date night or anniversary celebration with champagne, chocolate, and candlelight (just be sure you have enough light to paint by!) or make this class the first phase of a thoughtful gift exchange with your significant other.
  • You’ll probably complete your masterpieces during class, but we recommend leaving time afterward to brush in the finishing touches and linger in that romantic mood.
Class length: 90 minutes
We suggest: Skip a trip to the craft store and add our Watercolor Paint Kit, Set of 36 Colors to your purchase of this class; in addition to the paints, it comes with 10 art brushes, watercolor paper, and a zip-up pouch.

Fun experience!

My husband and I enjoyed the experience to learn something new. However, we felt the class went by really quickly and we still had lots to do on our paintings afterwards.

At least we had fun!

Purchased this class for my husband for Valentine's Day. We had so much fun, even if our skills have a long way to go :) The class was so well done and provided great instruction. Pairing with the watercolor kit made it just that much easier. Can't wait to use the techniques that were learned to continue to improve.

A very good time

This was really fun! I was a little worried that I would not be skilled enough to do this, but the instructor (sorry I don't remember her name) was fantastic. She made me feel like anyone can do it. She explained everything so well and made it look easy and she just made me feel comfortable. It was nice to be able to this this at home too. It's very snowy and cold where I live.

Fun and unique afternoon activity!

This was a fun gift for a romantic couple, friends, or family pair. Painting experience was not needed but of course any creative interest helps. Time flew by once we got to painting. Learned some good tips and enjoyed the class. Would recommend to anyone!

I probably would gift this to someone. It was fun.

I didn't know what to expect, but was surprised at the method used. It was a lot of fun.

A spectacular experience!

This was the perfect class. Annie was extremely helpful, and these two non-artists created beautiful watercolors of each other, and spectacular memories!

For the couples portrait class do I purchase 1 or 2?

Verified reply from Maxienne

You only need to purchase 1 per in-person couple. However, if you're attending virtually as a long-distance couple, you can purchase 2.
