Shot of Art LA

Shot of Art is a paint and sip date where you two pretend you are “just here to relax” while secretly trying to out-hot each other’s canvas. It’s located in Los Angeles, with studios in Santa Monica and Downtown LA, so you can pick your vibe, beachy and bright or city and slightly unhinged.

​

You walk into a room that smells like acrylic paint and possibility, the music is doing the most in the background, and suddenly you are flirting with a paintbrush like it is a personality trait. You leave with a painting that is either shockingly good or hilariously tragic, which is honestly perfect, because now you have a shared artifact of the night.

​

Why choose Shot of Art?

​

✅ Built-in chemistry: You get to sit close, talk trash, and “accidentally” brush hands while reaching for the same color  

​

✅ Flirty structure: The instructor gives you a plan, but you still get to be chaotic and make it “your version”  

​

✅ Instant conversation fuel: Your painting choices reveal everything, control issues, taste level, and who is lying about being “not competitive”  

​

✅ Cute takeaway: You leave with a physical receipt of the date, even if it is a cursed little masterpiece  

​

✅ Perfect pacing: Enough activity to avoid awkward silences, enough downtime to actually vibe and see if they are fun outside of texting
