Painting with a Twist

I love a good paint night. I will say my group did show up late and the instructor was able to catch us up with no interference to the class which was great. This painting with a twist was easy to find and had plenty of parking and options for your choice in canvas.

Don't waist your time!! Policies sucks!! It's no way to value customers, they just want your money !!

I recently came here for a birthday celebration, so it was just 7 of us. We brought finger foods and wine to drink. The space was a decent size, and there was lots of paintings on the wall. The artist already had our drawings, which was the phases of the moon ready. She walked us through each step, and she had a lot of patience. We are a "special" group, and we LOADS OF FUN. The more we painted, the more we sipped. Each person had a different version of the what the artist, but it was uniquely ours. I will definitely come back again for a session!

Paint your pet class is so much fun! The artist draws your pet on the canvas and you can paint them however you want! She was helpful and kind.

I've been to 3 other Painting with a Twist locations, so I have other experiences to compare the Metairie location to. The class was scheduled to start at 7pm. We started 15 - 20 minutes late and was rushed at the end. It's worth noting that inadequate brushes have been a consistent theme across every Paint with a Twist location I've been to. We were given one big brush and expected to navigate the canvas with it (keep in mind, there were small areas and fine lines that we needed to make work with an unrealistic brush). The big brush was later swapped out for a small, terrible quality brush. We couldn't keep both at the same time (which was irritating). The small brush looked and performed like it came with a cheap paint with numbers kit. The instructor could have done a better job at explaining the painting. This was the first time I've painted and didn't understand what we were supposed to be doing. At one point, I just stopped listening and did my own thing. With that said, our finished painting was noticeably different from the painting that was advertised on the website. We all had this weird blue circle in the top, middle part of our paintings. However, the picture advertised on the website actually looked like a space galaxy. What we painted as a full circle should have been a half circle at the top of the canvas. Also, there were several other things that we weren't instructed to include on our paintings. I'm a huge fan of Painting with a Twist, but I'll pass on returning to this location. Thankfully, I ended up with a painting that I halfway liked...but only after putting in a lot of extra work to recover from what we were/weren't instructed to do.

Let me start off and say that I was a bozo and scheduled the at home kit for the wrong day! D'oh! Thankfully, Heather saved the day was able to get my kit ready in no time. Great customer service! As for the at home kit, the instructions were easy to follow and we had everything we needed from start to finish. I would recommend to anyone solo painting or date night. A++

My bf surprised me with a painting class for my birthday! I've been wanting to take a crafty class, so I was excited when we got in! Lauren, our instructor, made painting so fun and easy! I came in pretty intimidated, but I'll definitely have to return to try another class!

First time here with coworkers and it was so much fun. Lauren was very helpful, patient, and picked the most beautiful picture to paint. I will definitely be coming back, even if I have to come by myself!

This is suppose to be a paint of my pup - the colors are awful no browns - it is hard to cover the orange marker

Alexis was super fun and really helpful. It was my first time painting so I was very nervous, but she made me feel comfortable the whole time. I shall return for sure!
