Saratoga Paint & Drip Studio — Attraction in City of Saratoga Springs

adjacent to many restaurants and by one of the main drags, for three hours i sweated, cursed (profusely), glazed over in indecision, drank and could not relax despite the truly excellent ale and equally terrific company who introduced me to "Paint Your Pet" night at Saratoga Paint & Sip Studio, a privately-owned establishment opened in June 2012 in Saratoga Springs.

it was LOADS of fun, though the self-imposed pressure to capture the Love for my boy on canvas was numbing as it was laughable. as Barb M. stated: "Painting a pet is very stressful! Better to paint scenery!" the lovely and spirited owner said she features "Paint Your Pet" night roughly every other month, as it is very very popular, but encourages patrons to try other theme nights, which can be browsed in the calendar section of the website.

though i still feel woefully inadequate as an artist, i'm TOTALLY going back for more, and in subsequent visits my mantra will be "painting is fun...

This was a bit of a rip off. We got there, parking tough in Saratoga. We get set up, after paying more $$ for bad wine. Staff Mary stood up, help up wine glass and said "paint lines like trees from bottom up then use your imagination" The attendees had to make her repeat as we could not see or hear her. She got back up and held up a small canvas and painted a black line with same instructions! We asked for real wine glass to drink our bad wine from but were told no, saving for next class lol. So the 6 of us ( $240 plus drinks) made the best of it , which one should always do. No one checked on us the whole time. WE were still painting when they announced it was time to get going toward home as they had another class coming in. Insult to injury ! It's OK. Friends and family joined and next time we will just gather at one of our own houses. DO...

Saratoga Paint and Sip is truly amazing! The first time I went there was great, Everyone who worked here was extremely sweet, helpful and very friendly. They make you feel like you can paint anything! During the class they show you many techniques and everyone else who was there was also having a blast.

After I took the class, a week later my sister and I went and painted the Summer Florals. It looked very intimidating but the artist who was there was SO helpful and encouraging. She stopped by to see how we were doing and offered lots of tips.

I would HIGHLY recommend going here again and again. They frequently have new paintings to try out too!

I forgot to mention - they supply everything!! A good sized canvas, as much paint as you want, the brushes and aprons. Not to mention during the classes, delicious snacks...
