As mischievous kids, most of us have doodled on furniture and walls, which inevitably results in a good scolding from our parents. But now, we can do it and call it art. Heartline Project is an art studio where students get to learn how to paint on all sorts of canvases, including bottles and mirrors.

At Heartline Project, customers get to choose from a wide variety of surfaces to paint on, including mirrors, vases, and glass bottles. But those who want to go back to basics can opt for a regular canvas instead.

Most people choose to use acrylic paint for their artwork, and they get to utilise a wide variety of brushes with different tips. Other tools such as pencils and markers are also provided.

If you are less confident in your artistic talent, the studio can provide you with templates and sketches, which you can then build upon.

Similar to an art jamming studio, there will be a teacher on hand to provide basic coaching. Otherwise, you can pay an additional fee for a more personalised teaching experience.
Apart from teaching you how to paint and which strokes to use, the instructors will also give specific advice for how you should care for your finished products in order to ensure its longevity.

After completing your masterpiece, the studio will wrap your artwork in decorative paper and place them in a bag to make it easier for you to take home.

The architecture of the studio is just as beautiful as the artworks within it.

Before entering the main painting room, you’ll be led to a cloakroom that’s illuminated by red lights. Here, you can hang up your outerwear, put on the provided aprons, and snap a few selfies before you head in.

The rest of the studio adopts a vintage aesthetic, with mini Greek-inspiredi statues, vases filled with artificial flowers, kitschy lamps and lights, and lace tablecloths decorating the space.

Corners of the studio are decorated strategically so that you can pictures with – or of – your completed artwork.

The paintings of other customers are also displayed around the studio for others to admire and take inspiration from.
