My boyfriend and I are not artsy people, and we went here to do something a little different.
We went for the abstract workshop - it was really easy to reserve a spot online - and we really had a great time. It's true that the instructors weren't typical instructors (ie, it wasn't a step by step class), but they were there if you needed advice on how to do a certain effect or what would happen if you did A and B together, etc. I personally really liked it like that. It meant him and I could laugh and joke while we attempted to paint our abstract masterpieces. You also have access to different tools and paint.
I had a really great time - I highly recommend it for anyone looking for something different to do in Toronto! We both left in a great mood and are planning to go back sometime soon.
