My first Art Jamming at Arteatistiq Boutique Tea House

Went to try out Art Jamming (social painting) in a beautiful café @ Arteatistiq Boutique Tea House, Mandarin Gallery with my girlfriend, Fif, and we had such an enjoyable time doing so together! A wonderful experience overall.

We registered under student at a special rate S$29 (U.P S$50) for a 3hr session with instructor included (From 10am to 1pm). The session comes with a 50x50cm canvas, unlimited acrylic paint, paintbrushes, a wet paint canvas box for take-away, and a non-alcoholic Arteastiq Lite Specialty Beverage! Oh, and one adorable apron too!

We started out doing sketches using the pencils provided by them.

I ordered a cup of warm floral tea for myself and she had Ice tea I think.

Focus on our work.



Time to paint after sketching! This is where the fun comes! I personally enjoy painting, so relaxing and therapeutic for the soul.

The instructor guided us through very patiently. We were told to paint the background first.

And we managed to finish everything within the given time! (Yay! Achievement unlocked!)

Nicely packaged and ready to bring it home!

As we worked on our canvases, we can't help but paused to admire some other people's work! So perfectly drawn!

All in all, the session was great and I thank Fif for being such a great company in doing this together!
