Come Paint With Us in the Vineyards of the Santa Ynez Valley

We invite you to join us, grab a glass of wine and a paintbrush, and meet us in the vineyard for an unforgettable event.

How It Works

Our Paint in the Vineyard events are open to the general public. They are held outside in the morning (start times between 10 & 11am) and run about 3 hours. Events include a tasting or glass of wine from the host vineyard. We provide all the supplies needed (tables & chairs included), and all participants will leave with a vineyard masterpiece of their own–of the view from your location! Local Art Spot artists provide step-by-step instruction and encouragement for painters.

What if I Can't Paint?

If you’re thinking, "I don’t have an artistic bone in my body," or "but, I don’t know how to paint," don’t worry! A trained artist will walk you through the entire painting process step-by-step. Even if you’ve never painted before, you’ll be amazed at what you can create! Check our calendar for locations, details and to make a reservation.

Bring Your Friends & Family to Paint in the Vineyards

Santa Ynez Valley is home to some of the most beautiful and world-renowned vineyards in California. Imagine you and your friends or family, surrounded by the unparalleled beauty of the Santa Ynez Valley with a paintbrush in one hand and a glass of estate wine in the other. This is a perfect, stress-free environment that will both inspire your creative spirit and indulge the wine-lover in you.

We can paint the view, paint from a photograph, use watercolor instead of acrylic or even a custom painting that is special to you or your group.

A trained artist will guide you through a step-by-step process to paint the view in front of you while you sip on estate wine. You’re bound to end up with something you’re proud of. Most of our guests are amazed by what they’ve created. You’ll even walk away with a masterpiece of your own to commemorate the occasion.

Events are typically 3 hours long, though we have watercolor options that can run for 1.5-2 hours as well.
