About this Event
🐇 The Funky Easel Sip & Paint Evening — Leaping Hare
Celebrate the beauty of the changing seasons with an evening of creativity, laughter and a little countryside magic.
The Funky Easel is a relaxed Sip & Paint experience designed to help you switch off, have fun, and discover just how creative you really are—even if you've never painted before.
This October, we'll be painting Leaping Hare—a striking autumn-inspired artwork featuring a beautiful hare captured mid-leap amongst soft grasses, seed heads and rich seasonal colours. Full of movement and character, it's a painting that celebrates the wild beauty of the British countryside.
Whether you're meeting friends, planning a date night, or simply fancy doing something different for yourself, you'll enjoy a warm, welcoming evening and leave with a painting you'll be proud to display.

🐇 About Leaping Hare
The hare has long been a symbol of energy, freedom and new beginnings. With its powerful leap and watchful spirit, it has inspired folklore and artists for centuries.
Together we'll build this beautiful painting layer by layer, using simple techniques to create soft textures, flowing grasses and the distinctive character of the hare. Whether you're picking up a paintbrush for the very first time or you've joined me before, you'll be amazed at what you can achieve.
This isn't about perfection—it's about enjoying the process, relaxing into your creativity, and watching your painting come alive.
🍷 An autumn evening to remember
There's something special about slowing down for a couple of hours, chatting, painting and sharing a few laughs.
Come on your own or bring someone along—many people arrive as strangers and leave already planning their next Funky Easel night together.
