This Taipei Painting Classes venue stands out with a bright pink exterior and a sleek black sign, a bold color scheme that hints at its avant-garde style. Student artworks are displayed in the venue's large floor-to-ceiling windows, turning this studio, nestled under the trees, into a beautiful piece of street-corner art. Studio 83 offers both group and private one-on-one painting lessons. Group classes are two hours long, with 23 time slots available for flexible booking each week. The venue provides a variety of mediums for use in classes, including oil painting, pastels, watercolors, and acrylics. In addition to painting classes, the studio also offers drawing courses, free-form acrylic painting sessions, private lessons, and children's art creation classes, all available for online booking. ### Studio 83 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Taipei Painting Classes for Beginners REVIEWED BY [Lynda](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Lynda/) This class was a two-hour introductory group oil painting session for adults, with one art consultant for eight students. After discussing our creative needs with the instructor and selecting a photo, the venue printed it out for us, and we were ready to start painting. The instructor prepared all the tools, helped prime the canvas, and sketched a simple composition. Then, they taught us color mixing and painting techniques, leaving us ample time to create. Towards the end of the class, the instructor helped with the finishing touches, refining and deepening the contrast where needed, which gave Lynda a real sense of accomplishment when she saw the finished piece. Studio 83's floor-to-ceiling windows make the entire studio very bright, and painting bathed in sunlight felt especially fresh and comfortable. The instructor for this introductory oil painting class was friendly and professional, making everyone feel at ease and able to quickly pick up the basics. It's perfect for anyone with no prior experience who wants to enjoy the fun of oil painting.

This Taipei Painting Classes venue was co-founded by Ciao and Coca, both specializing in children's art. In addition to adult and children's painting classes, they also host special themed parties like figure drawing or "wine and paint" events. The venue features a simple industrial-style decor and a clean environment, with a smooth flow for everything from picking up art supplies to cleaning brushes. For painting classes, you can choose from various mediums including oil paint, acrylics, colored pencils, watercolors, and sketching, and canvas sizes can also be customized. Before you begin, the instructors offer advice on different compositions and confirm your desired canvas size. They provide a rich array of paint colors and various brush sizes for you to use. ### C&C ART Mystery Shopper's Take Review #A painting paradise for composition struggles REVIEWED BY [Katherine](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Katherine/) Even though it wasn't Katherine's first time with a Taipei Painting Classes experience, she often struggled with how to start after choosing a composition. For this C&C ART introductory oil painting class, the instructor helped with the initial pencil sketch, which greatly reduced Katherine's composition worries. During the pandemic, class sizes are limited to one instructor for a maximum of four students, making Katherine feel very comfortable. When it was time to start the base colors, the instructor always asked for her ideas first, then taught her how to apply each stroke. All she had to do was tell the instructor her vision, and she could ask questions at any time during the process. This was a Taipei Painting Classes experience where she felt fully supported while still being able to express her own ideas. If you have a basic idea for your finished piece but struggle with composition, C&C ART is a Taipei painting studio that will be perfect for you.

The venue sits right by the sidewalk, its transparent display windows adorned with students' acrylic paintings. From the entrance, you can see rows of wooden easels inside. The studio is filled with acrylic paintings of various sizes, with students' vibrant creations gracing every corner. Specializing in acrylic painting, Huaba 21 primarily offers group Taipei Painting Classes and free-form creative painting sessions. Group classes run for three hours, with two art consultants guiding 7-8 students. Additionally, the studio provides unique courses like fluid art and splatter painting, as well as parent-child experience classes. All classes can be booked in advance via their official website, with payment made on-site after the session. ### 畫吧21 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Top Taipei Painting Classes for Private Group Sessions REVIEWED BY [Lynda](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Lynda/) Lynda recently tried an acrylic painting class at Huaba 21. The session began with a brief explanation of color schemes for the artwork, then moved straight into techniques for composition, color matching, and mixing. Throughout the creative process, the instructor provided real-time guidance on painting techniques and occasionally added a masterful touch to the artwork. Lynda was particularly impressed by the instructor's hands-on teaching style. One thing to note: Huaba 21 is right next to the sidewalk, so if you prefer not to be observed by passersby, it's best to choose a seat further away from the window when you're painting. Compared to the typical spacious and brightly lit Taipei Painting Classes, Huaba 21 feels more like a medium-sized art studio. The overall atmosphere is relaxed and cozy, making it highly recommended for small groups of friends to book a private session. The owner even mentioned that guests are welcome to bring wine to enjoy while painting, creating a truly exclusive art experience with friends.

Its prominent sign is easy to spot once you reach the riverside. The studio is a single-story, semi-open space with about four stations for adult Taipei Painting Classes, plus a dedicated children's art area. With an outdoor area facing the river, you can also choose to paint outside. The venue also sells Hong Kong-style beverages. This Taipei Painting Classes venue primarily offers acrylic painting instruction, with clear, straightforward pricing for adults, students, and seniors. Once you've chosen your acrylic painting subject and canvas size, you're ready to start painting. Beyond painting experiences, Show233 also provides other craft workshops, including metalworking, ink wash painting, and clay art, all discoverable on their Facebook page. ### 秀之藝術文化社 Show233 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Acrylic Painting Class by the Tamsui River REVIEWED BY [Katherine](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Katherine/) Show233's standout feature is the opportunity to paint facing the riverbank, creating an incredibly romantic atmosphere that evokes the feeling of painting acrylics by the Seine in Paris. The instructor has high standards for the finished pieces. Beyond occasionally assisting during the painting lesson, the instructor spends over half an hour refining students' completed works, offering a perfect opportunity for a leisurely stroll outside. Although each painting took nearly five hours in total, the finished piece was astonishingly close to the reference image upon returning from a walk! Katherine highly recommends this Taipei Painting Class for anyone seeking a unique art experience. Stepping out of an indoor studio and directly facing the river provides an optimal setting for mind, body, and spirit. However, it's advisable to set aside a full afternoon for a more relaxed experience, and consider visiting on a cooler day to fully enjoy the painting session.

Stepping into the studio, you're greeted by white walls adorned with various illustrations and paintings casually placed on the wooden floor, creating a vibrant and artistic atmosphere. You'll need to change into slippers upon entering, which adds to the relaxed vibe. The venue offers a rich variety of Taipei Painting Classes, from oil painting and watercolor to acrylic and fluid art, with each class accommodating up to about 10 students. It's also a pet-friendly space; in addition to the adorable resident dog, you're welcome to bring your own pet to class. Regarding materials, there are plenty of brushes, but paints are not self-serve. Instead, the instructor will assess your painting and dispense the necessary colors, which is a unique approach compared to other Taipei Painting Classes. ### Painting Stage Mystery Shopper's Take Review #Pet-Friendly Taipei Painting Classes REVIEWED BY [Katherine](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Katherine/) Katherine recently experienced Painting Stage's freestyle oil painting class, and even with the instructor's guidance based on her chosen reference image, the resulting artwork had a richer depth and more vibrant colors than the original photo, showcasing true professional artistry. The instructor-to-student ratio is about 1:4, with a full class capping at around 10 people. However, because there were quite a few students present, the instructor wasn't always able to provide constant one-on-one assistance, so there were occasional waits when seeking guidance. Overall, Katherine highly recommends this Taipei Painting Classes venue for anyone looking to infuse their personal style into an existing image. Whether you're brimming with your own ideas or prefer to lean on the instructor's expertise, you're sure to create a wonderfully imaginative piece. Just a heads-up: Painting Stage doesn't provide packaging, so remember to bring your own bag or box to carry your oil painting home!

The venue is on the first floor, easy to spot, and while the space isn't huge, the seating is comfortably spacious. The walls and shelves display numerous student artworks. With abundant wood elements, track lighting, and large floor-to-ceiling windows, the entire studio feels bright and inviting. As the name suggests, Sanba Shuazi Oil Painting Studio focuses on oil painting instruction. Pricing is mainly divided into two options: using an on-site sample or choosing your own image. Canvas sizes are generally smaller than a size 4, making them on the smaller side among Taipei Painting Classes. Upgrading one size costs an additional NT$100, and multi-session packages are also available. The oil painting instruction provides ample and very clean brushes and tools, with paints laid out for free selection. ### 三把刷子油畫未乾教室 Mystery Shopper's Take Review #The instructors can help you create anything you envision REVIEWED BY [Katherine](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Katherine/) Katherine and a friend, who was trying oil painting for the first time, visited Sanba Shuazi Oil Painting Studio, and both chose to paint their own selections. During the pandemic, the venue operated on a timed reservation system, so there weren't many people, and we received the instructor's full attention throughout the entire Taipei Painting Classes session. Since it was a hot day, the instructor kindly helped us order drinks and even provided a beautiful cake box for free to safely take our paintings home. The instructors at Sanba Shuazi Oil Painting Studio tend to incorporate less of their own aesthetic preferences during their oil painting instruction. Instead, they guide students to articulate how they want to paint, then provide advice on brushstrokes. The final artworks are a bit more conservative, with a high resemblance to the reference images. Katherine recommends this venue for those who have a clear vision for their work and some prior experience, rather than complete beginners. With the instructor's help, you can perfectly bring your ideas to life.

There are many types of painting experiences available, including acrylic, fluid art, and watercolor, but oil painting is an excellent choice for beginners because mistakes can be easily covered with new layers of paint, allowing for various creative changes. Overall, a two-to-five-hour painting experience is a wonderful way to try something new on the weekend and find a moment of calm. If you enjoy creating and bringing beautiful finished pieces home to add an artistic touch to your space, consider trying other Taipei DIY experiences such as dried flower arrangements, handmade candles, metalworking DIY, or leathercraft classes. Immerse yourself in the beauty and fragrance of flowers, wash away the stress of the week, and focus on completing your own unique creation.
