Details:

A vibrant, no-rules creative experience where you bring meaning and magic to the canvas. We are shaking up the standard Paint and Sip style party. Led by seasoned artist William Duvall, with 23 years of teaching and creative expertise, this session is all about exploring abstract art in a way that’s playful, expressive, and uniquely you. You’ll be encouraged to tap into all your senses—seeing colors with fresh eyes, feeling the textures of the materials, and even listening to the rhythm of your brushstrokes—as you connect more deeply with your creative instincts. It’s so easy and way too much fun. Whether you’re a total beginner or a curious creator, you’ll learn surprisingly simple techniques to build bold, colorful, and deeply personal works of art — using your intuition, imagination, and a few fun tricks of the craft. No pressure, no perfection; just music, paint, and pure creative flow. Let’s Paint!

All supplies are provided, and each guest will leave with their very own abstract art. Feel free to bring snacks and BYO drinks (alcohol is fine, but no glass!), or purchase refreshments from our Farm Boutique.

Doors open at 6pm, and we start painting at 6:15pm sharp. Everyone paints at different speeds, but class is usually over by 8:30pm or earlier.

What to Expect:

• Step-by-step guidance in abstract painting • Techniques that anyone can learn (yes, even you!) • A focus on expression, not perfection • A fun, welcoming environment, full of giggles Duration: approx. 2-2.5 hours Cost: $35 per person + fees Location: Lavender Hill Farm, Boyne City, MI Space is limited—reserve your spot today!

About the Instructor

My name is Jen, and I was born and raised in Charlevoix. I started Gaudy Giggles Paint Parties in 2019. I have been looking for a way to change the standard Paint and Sip Style class. Shake it up a bit, try something new; that’s where Will Duvall comes in. Will lives the abstract art lifestyle. With over 23 years of experience as an artist and creative mentor, Will brings a deep passion for helping others unlock their artistic potential. His teaching style blends technical knowledge with an intuitive, process-driven approach that encourages exploration over perfection. It’s so freeing and way too much fun.

William teaches all skill levels, how to walk this creative - think outside of the box - no rules - path. Whether working with beginners or seasoned artists, he creates a welcoming space where curiosity leads, and each brushstroke is a chance to discover something new. His classes are known for their energy, warmth, and the freedom to connect with your senses, emotions, and individual style while creating something beautiful.

We thoroughly enjoy watching people work through their hesitation or fear of picking up that brush and realizing they just painted something amazing.
