    Final fix for the bride in a $2k painting
    Dylan D.

    Given the artist's response, I will add photos for reference, including of myself that was provided in an attempt to fix my face. Of note, I have since shown a few more people the painting and they are absolutely appalled by the painting, both before and after the edits.

    Yes, this was a proposal!

    Amazing artist, amazing instructor, amazing person! Ylenia takes care of the entire process through and through! this is the place to go for a fun date, experience, and memory! P.s. Great wine For a paint and sip

    Private Paint Party
    Danielle G.

    Biggest shoutout to Paint for a Purpose. I had booked a popular studio for my birthday for a private paint session at my apartment. They cancelled the morning of and thanks to paint for a purpose for saving my day! It was sooooo much fun and I'm so grateful for her. She brought all the paint supplies and was super patient with me and my closest friends! We weren't the easiest as we were chatting a lot but she was patient. I even had two friends who were late and she accommodated them while not slowing down the rest of the girls!!! I will definitely book her for future private events!

    Thank you so much Ylenia for your time to guide us to paint this wonderful painting! She guided us to paint all four of these paintings. It was a test of our communication skills haha but it was super fun! Our tables had all our supplies and we were all able to go on our own pace. Thank you so much Ylenia!

    Wedding painting
    Kelly D.

    Ylenia did a live wedding painting at our wedding May 2023! We are overjoyed with the beautiful painting! She is such a talented artist! We are so lucky to have found her!

    An oil painting!!

    Ylenia is incredible! She painted two pieces for us. Of all the money to spend on a wedding, an oil painting by a pro is a tiny expense and we get to enjoy the special moment every time we see it on the wall. We couldn't be happier with her work; thank you, Ylenia!

    Fun in the sun!

    See all

They hold these once a month and the kids stay for an art class, pizza, and a movie, while parents can go grab a bite/drink. My husband and I ended up going to Knolls right next door and it was so nice to be able to have a drink knowing our daughter was having a blast across the wall. They also lock the door to make sure only the guardians of the child are able to enter to pick them up, and they are mindful of food allergies as well (my daughter is allergic to peanuts). It all felt very safe and gave us peace of mind. It was an awesome experience. My daughter loved it SO much we had her 7th birthday party there this past weekend. The kids made slime, spin art, and painted ceramics. Everyone was raving about the crafting and the space. Tianna was so accommodating and helpful throughout the planning process to make sure our unique party circumstances went off without a hitch. Tianna went above and beyond to make sure the kids were having a wonderful time. Ana and Lilly were also super nice and helpful! We hope to be able try more art classes in the future and are so thankful for this fun spot in Bixby for art lovers!

It was my husband's birthday and as we were pressed on availability, I wanted to do something different, yet affordable and local and to my surprise, she checked all of the boxes. I was referred by an associate and it was absolutely perfect, my husband was blown away! What I loved most of all, is that she is so excellent at what she does, that all you need to do is answer a few questions about your likes and dislikes ie. Personality traits and from that alone, she can come up with the most unique ideas that will suit you to a "T". If you're anything like me, it's like you know what you want, but can't quite yourself put it into words, well she take your likes and what's important to you and capture it in such a one of a kind way, like putting words to music, for my husband and myself, it was like an adult play date, a fantasy of sorts. She managed to capture all of the playfulness and freedom that we once experienced as youths, we dropped all of our strict, semi uptight ways that comes so gradually over the years from being responsible adults and we were once again, two carefree youngsters without a care in the world, just enjoying each other's company, in an ambiance so fitting for the occasion. Her attention to detail to capture the most important moments as described to her was so meticulously orchestrated, that I knew right then, if I didn't know before, that this is not only her passion but her life's work. It's RARE these days to find someone so passionate about what they do, that it comes off in there work, in every single detail. My mind was completely at ease. Although it was only a getaway for just a few short hours, we had an epic time, living our very own fairytale, love story @Toni's Crafts and I hope that whoever read this, looking for an adventure of your own and you find yourself short on time, ideas and dare I say funds, Toni's Crafts is definitely the solution to your problems, she will plan an escape modeled just for you and or your party, on a budget that you can afford and yet still give it the same, if not more dedication, as a big, overpriced, party planning company would. She will do her best to work with you just to bring whatever YOUR vision is to life, whatever it is, that YOU want. Unlike those big party places that have preset boring, one size fits all, over priced packages @Toni's Crafts you have the opportunity to be creative just by allowing her to create a celebration dinner, party or whatever you desire, all based off of your imagination. I can not wait to plan my next function with her just to see what she can come up with. Maybe something with the girls, we will see

    3 years ago on our 2nd anniversary we came to Long Beach and spent the weekend hanging out around…read morethe harbor and going to the Aquarium. So for our 5th anniversary we decided to come back to Long Beach but this time my fiancée had several groupon deals to choose from. So out of the 5 options I chose the Queen Mary tour and the painting class with wine. That's how we stumbled across Creative Canvas LA. Laniqua (the owner) was awesome from the moment we called her to see if she would accept our groupon the next day. She saved a spot for us and asked to send her an email once we purchased the groupon so she could make it official. Very cool! Trying to find the place wasn't too hard but we did have to ask a restaurant near by where we could find the painting class. Fortunately for us, they knew exactly what we were talking about and point us along the way. Upon arriving, we had the opportunity to meet Laniqua in person and she remembered it was our anniversary while pointing us to our seats and blank canvases. She had an assistant who was awesome and very helpful while Laniqua walked us through the steps. The only negative was that the groupon said the class comes with a free glass of wine but there wasn't any available and if we did want drinks we had to purchase them from the bar next door. Other than that, the class was fun and very interesting the way you learn how to paint w picture. I would highly recommend taking her class and just make sure to call to see what location she'll be at because she has several. OOOOO 5 out of 5 Afros

She had funny jokes and I really appreciated her coming around to help us individually when we were stuck or to save our paintings from our own destruction. I am not an artist naturally. Whenever I have to draw something I usually warn people that it won't be pretty. At the end of the session, and with the help of a glass of wine, I couldn't believe how well my painting turned out. Even for someone who really isn't drawn to painting, it was much easier than I thought when Myia broke it down step by step. I love it so much, and have it proudly displayed in my room right now. Thanks Myia for a very memorable night :)

This came in very handy for our kiddos to run out some energy. The prices are reasonable and I had a lot more fun here as compared to those wine and paint nights. I mean, don't get me wrong, those are fun too but it doesn't allow for a ton of creativity. So if you're itching to create or explore art for the first time, this is the studio for ya! I would highly recommend this place to anyone (all ages and abilities) for private events, birthday parties, take a class, or just pop in and explore! You won't regret it!
