Wondering what to do for your child’s next birthday?
This is a painting party where everything is taken care of.
You choose the date, numbers, and theme. I come to you, set it all up, guide the kids through the session, and clean up afterwards.
It works especially well when your child has quietly outgrown play centres and bouncy castles but still wants something fun, social, and memorable.
Calm. Creative. No stress for you.
If this sounds like the kind of party that would suit your child, get in touch with your preferred date and number of kids and we’ll take it from there.

I love drawing... I always have. There’s something calming about slowing down, noticing every curve, every shadow, and letting the pencil do its quiet work.

I drew this for Hannah’s birthday.. her, Clíodhna and Millie, the three amigos. Time may pull them in different directions, but as a mother I’ll always remember how special they were together.

The sad thing is that AI can create an image like this in seconds, but it can’t hold the feeling, the care, or the memories behind each line.

Nothing compares to what the hand and heart can make together.

We had the best time celebrating our gorgeous Denise before she tied the knot with her dairy farmer husband 🐄💍

Her hen party was bursting with colour, craic, and a few unforgettable cow paintings. I had an absolute ball with the group!

Here’s what Denise had to say:

“I had my hen party this week & our chosen activity was painting with Eilise@Artfortheheart. From start to finish she was so accommodating & helpful. Eilise will work with you to arrange a venue that suits your trip & group size. She also checks in to see what theme you’d like for your painting so it’s totally tailored to your party!

We had a group of 25 which was a big bunch and it was amazing. When we walked in, the room was all set up and to our delight, the picture was already drawn on the canvas — so we could really sit back, relax, and have fun without worrying about the drawing stage. There was zero pressure to have any artistic experience and the craic was just mighty.

Eilise went around helping everyone, topping up paints and adding sparkles where needed! Such a great activity for a hen or any occasion. Everyone had an absolute ball. Thank you so much, Eilise!”

A huge shout-out to the staff at McCafferty’s in Leitir, who went above and beyond — from the warm welcome to the fantastic service, they made the night flow effortlessly. The atmosphere was unreal, the perfect backdrop for laughter, painting, and prosecco.

If you’re planning a hen and want something a bit different — relaxed, creative and full of laughs....Get in touch to book your own paint party. You bring the people, and I will bring the paint, the fun, and the good vibes. 🥂💕

Hi everyone,
I just realised that I never introduced myself here! My name is Eilíse and I have been teaching
art in the northwest of Donegal for 18 years and still love every minute of it.
I’m passionate about the power of creativity, not just as something to learn, but as something that can boost wellbeing, expression and connection.
I love watching children and adults relax into the process and surprise themselves with what they can make.

I now run art experiences designed to help you unwind, relax, and have fun, including:

🎨 Pop Pour Paint Nights – messy, colourful, and seriously therapeutic
🥂 Hen Parties & Celebrations – unique, creative nights to remember
🎂 Birthday Parties – for kids or grown-ups, tailored to your theme
👩‍👧 Mammy & Me Workshops – creative bonding time with your little one
💻 Online Classes – join from home and create at your own pace
📚 Leaving Cert Visual Culture Grinds – focused support over Zoom

Follow along for upcoming event dates, or drop me a DM if you’d like to plan something special.

If you have attended one of my events, leave a little comment below about your experience.
