b.collins Studio

Specialties

b. collins Studio is a boutique style paint & sip establishment that guides students from beginning to end on painting the image of the day. b. collins Studio students participate in a structured art class and paint more complicated images than one might normally find at a paint & sip venue.

Using tried and true techniques employed by the masters, students paint complicated images with a degree of success that would be difficult to achieve in a free form environment.

Images painted by the masters such as Georgia O’Keeffe, Van Gogh, Matisse, Monet, Kandinsky and Modigliani to name a few, are included in the selection of images available.

Students are closely guided through the process and the success rate for non-​artists is amazing. Students who have never painted before complete wonderful works of art they are happy to frame and hang or give as gifts.
