What To Expect
Create a beautiful framed watercolor of Paris in a calm creative space inside Boma Café — perfect for complete beginners. This workshop runs weekly on Thursdays (1:30 PM) and Sundays (10:30 AM). Prefer painting outdoors? I also host a premium outdoor watercolor workshop along the Seine during warmer months. The scene we paint comes from the same street where Midnight in Paris was filmed, including the spot where Gil is picked up by the vintage car. You’ll spend about 3 hours inside the dedicated workshop room at Boma Café, fully immersed in the creative process. I’ll guide you step by step through the watercolor process. Your drawing is pre-sketched in advance, so you can focus on painting and relaxing — even if it’s your first time using watercolor. Midway through the session, we pause for a calming tasting of high-quality Japanese tea, served in traditional teaware. By the end, you’ll finish your own Parisian watercolor — framed and ready to display — and receive a CREAA tote bag to carry it safely during your travels.

5.00I had a great time with this experience with Artem! I learned a lot and this is also a really fun way to experience Paris. He takes his time to teach every student and share his knowledge of art and Paris along the way. This is a must do for your Paris trip .

5.00As someone that hasn’t done anything with visual art the instruction was clear and concise and was such a welcoming environment. The tea break was an added bonus that gave me a chance to mingle with the other people in the workshop, and the teacher! And the photographer took some amazing pictures that I will be able to keep as a memory of the experience, in addition to the framed finished piece and the tote bag. overall a 10/10 experience!
Highly recommend

5.00Thanks to the wonderful teacher Artem, even a complete beginner like me was able to learn the joy of watercolor painting and my own untapped potential in just a few hours. I highly recommend this workshop to all those who want to enjoy a memorable moment in Paris beyond simple tourism. ただ観光するだけでなくて、思い出に残る素敵な経験になると思います。
Watercolor in Paris

5.00Very happy to take part in this new watercolor session. The experience was amazing: painting in this iconic place — like a scene from the film Midnight in Paris — with a cozy Parisian atmosphere, stone décor, and the tea ceremony, it was truly an unforgettable moment. A warm and peaceful memory, perfect for this autumn weather.
