Do I need painting experience?
Not at all. Just Paint is open to everyone—from people who have painted for years to people who simply want to get back into creating. This is not about painting the “right” way. Elliott will be there to offer guidance, ideas, and encouragement while allowing you the freedom to create your own work.
What should I wear?
Dress to get messy! Acrylic paint can stain clothing. Bring a smock, apron, old shirt, or wear clothing and shoes you don't mind getting paint on. This is a working artist's studio, and getting a little paint on yourself is part of the experience.
Where do I park?
Street parking is available throughout downtown Asheville, along with several nearby public parking garages. Please give yourself a little extra time before the workshop to park and walk to the studio.
What happens if my painting is still wet when the workshop ends?
No problem. Large acrylic paintings sometimes need additional drying time. You are welcome to leave your painting at Artbeat Gallery & Lounge and return to pick it up once it is dry.
Can I bring my own idea or inspiration?
Yes—and we encourage it. Bring photographs, sketches, color ideas, screenshots, or simply an idea in your head. You don't have to copy anything exactly. Inspiration is simply a starting point.
What type of paint will we use?
The workshop primarily uses acrylic paints, which are versatile, fast-drying, colorful, and perfect for experimenting with layers, texture, movement, and abstraction.

I’ve spent most of my life in the creative world, and I’ve been a full-time professional artist for more than a decade. My career has taken a path that I never could have planned.I became known for live performance painting—creating large-scale paintings in front of audiences, often in just 8–10 minutes and choreographed to music. Through my Artbeat Live performances, I’ve worked with corporations, professional sports organizations, private events and more than 300 charities, helping nonprofit organizations raise more than $5 million through the auction of my artwork.But behind the performances, I’ve always simply loved to paint.Today, I work from my studio and gallery in downtown Asheville, North Carolina, where I create my own contemporary paintings and continue exploring what happens when you stop worrying about whether something is “right” or “wrong” and simply allow yourself to create. My work and story were recently featured on the cover of The Laurel of Asheville magazine.That philosophy is really the inspiration behind my Just Paint Workshop.I’ve met so many people who tell me, “I’d love to paint, but I wouldn’t know where to start.” Others have painted before but don’t have the space, materials or confidence to work on a larger canvas. Just Paint was created for both.Come into the studio, put some paint on a canvas, stop overthinking it—and Just Paint.
