Helen Page

I’m a lead Paintvine artist in the Greater Manawatu area. Teaching and doing art is a personal favourite of mine, I enjoy both acrylic and watercolours, especially the tactile experience of layering colours and textures.

My professional background is in teaching a variety of age groups, and in my training the importance of focussing on the process and not worrying about the final product was emphasized. Doing this encourages connections being formed with those around you and it is a great stress relief.

I enjoy helping others turn a blank canvas from an intimidating void into their own work of art. Time disappears with a paintbrush in one hand and a glass of wine in the other, and I love to share in that energy, excitement and enthusiasm that a group of artists bring to their total art experience!

Frequently-asked questions

What can I expect from a Paintvine event?

Most importantly expect to have a FUN and CREATIVE evening! Your experience will start by arriving at the venue 10-15 minutes beforehand. The artist will check you in and show you to your seat, so you can get comfy before the session starts. We provide you with everything you need to complete your painting and one of our skilled artists will take you step-by-step through the featured painting of the session. Best of all, there is no experience required and all Paintvine events are judgement free zones! After around two hours you will have a completed masterpiece that you get to take home with you! We also take photos throughout the night which we post to our social pages (Facebook, Instagram etc.) and no cleaning at the end of the night - we take care of all that.

Are your events R18?

Yes, unfortunately all public events (ones we sell on our website) are hosted at bars or restaurants, and are age restricted to R18 and over. For events that we hold in public spaces (such as parks or beaches) there is no age restriction. For Private events, this is a case by case basis fully dependent on our partner venues.

Will I receive a ticket?

No, all our events are all ticketless. Your details are noted at purchase and will be checked at the door/event entry when you arrive. However, to make this process quick please have your event purchase details ready when you check in to your Paintvine event.

How much is it and what's included in my session?

All Paintvine events vary and the current price is on the event itself. We provide all the necessary directions and guidance from one of our skilled artists as well as all painting supplies including canvas or watercolour paper, paint, brushes and aprons. You get to take your painting home at the end of the night (woohoo). No food or drinks are included in the ticket price, unless specifically stated on the event page. You are welcome to purchase delicious food and drinks throughout Paintvine events, with the exclusion of Paintvine in the Park events - where you are welcome to bring a picnic.

Do I have to paint the featured painting?

No way. The great thing about Paintvine is the freedom to create a unique painting of your own. You're welcome to follow along with the artist or go your own way and create a one-of-a-kind. Add your own colours, shape, or textures to your painting to suit your home decor or personal preference, it's totally up to you! You'll be pleasantly surprised at how everyone's paintings come out different at the end.

What should I wear?

We provide aprons that should protect you, but we do recommend wearing clothes you don't mind getting a drop or two of paint on. And definitely no long flowing sleeves!

Do you hold group or Corporate events?

Yes, absolutely. Simply send us an email to hello@paintvine.co.nz or fill out the form on our 'Private events' page, and one of our team will arrange a suitable time and venue for your needs. A Paintvine event is great for any occasion.

If you would like to rebook your tickets to another date, you'll be subject to a $25 rebooking fee, this is waived if you buy a 'Paintvine Promise' at ticket purchase.
