Guided Family Paint Event (Ages 7+ with Adult)

Hosted by Paint Pour &amp; Play
Five-Time Canada Choice Awards Winner
Two-Time Winner – Paint Party Services

Step into a gentle, calming painting experience centered on comfort, presence, and quiet connection.

Join award-winning artist Sharon Burrows for Always Near, a guided family paint event featuring a peaceful polar bear at rest — a simple, elegant winter painting designed to feel safe, timeless, and at home in any space.

This is a guided, step-by-step paint class created to be calm, supportive, and welcoming for all skill levels.
The focus is on soft blending, gentle value shifts, and restraint, allowing the subject to emerge naturally without overworking the canvas.

This experience is not rushed, not chaotic, and not an open studio.
We paint together, at the same pace, following clear and encouraging instruction.

This event is designed for families, beginners, and anyone who enjoys a slower, more peaceful creative experience.
