what students are saying
Our pet portrait painting class is our most popular and most requested class, and for good reason! Next time you’re googling “paint and sip near me”, come along to our dog friendly adult classes (BYO dog, or borrow one of our two shop dogs)
Our professional portrait artist Eloise Nouvelle is a professional pet portraitist in Melbourne. With her beloved bloodhound Athena, you’ll be in good hands painting furry friends together. Eloise runs Nouvelle Pets, and is the owner of Paint With Me. Athena and Eloise are a memorable pair who have taught thousands of pet lovers of all skill levels and ages together.
Eloise will guide you through each step of the painting; the sketch, the colour mixing, the details, and how to perfectly capture your fur-friend's likeness through painting realistic and photographic details like eyes, fur textures, shiny coats, and adorable little toe-beans.

About Paint With Me Melbourne
Our whole studio is made up of local artists that teach affordable, high quality, and most of all fun art workshops 7 days a week.
In 2026, alongside being given the title "The Anchor of Melbourne's Inner North", we were celebrated for the largest provided class and workshop schedule - in the entire country!
Paint With Me took the cake as the top winner of awards here in Melbourne out of any workshop businesses across Australia. We ranked #1 in art lessons, painting and drawing, and craft in WeTeachMe's 2026 Curated editorial guides, with the title of "Experts in" and "Top Studio To Follow".
Not only that, Eloise Nouvelle was featured in their publication "12 Women on WeTeachMe Who Inspire and Inform" which you can read here. In 2025 we were awarded as a "KidsBook Outstanding Provider" for our, well, outstanding art classes! In 2026, we've committed to keeping our studio accessible and affordable for all; with heavily discounting weekly paint and sip and kids classes, opening extra days in the studio, and donating completely subsidised arts education to schools in Melbourne (not just the inner north!), and have made all of our art and craft workshops 100% NDIS accessible with 3 ways to book, helping more people enter spaces to create without limitation; whether that be physical, social, or financial.
In 2027 we plan to do more of our excellent work in our community, with partnerships across Melbourne's deeply important helpers in education, council, community space, and social enterprises.
Follow us for our updates as we continue letting Melbourne be as creative as possible, no matter what!
