I have a profound love for the beauty and mystery of the earth and it’s inhabitants. After many years contemplating the figure I’ve recently found freedom and joy in exploring the abstract by using bright colours and organic shapes as well as experimenting with images of nature and animals. I enjoy teaching people all the skills I've learned. If you've always wanted to learn a craft, get in touch! I look forward to having fun and getting into the creative flow with you!
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Candy Cane Santa Hat Chickadee is one of our more detailed paintings, which is exactly what makes it so satisfying to finish. Christy paces it carefully so nobody gets left behind — and Christy will help you turn any mistake into something intentional. Worth knowing: Paint Nite events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.
A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Christy is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Bubblemania Café , a real local spot, not a studio. Paint Nite invented this format in 2012 and has sold more than 10 million tickets. The trade-off is honest: lighting varies, it can get loud, and the person at the next easel is a stranger. That's the point. It's more of a night out than a class.
Yes — Candy Cane Santa Hat Chickadee is a Paint Nite favourite for girls nights in Calgary. Everyone paints their own canvas, so there's always something to laugh about at the end. If you're planning a bachelorette party or a larger group, private events of 10+ get reserved seating and a custom experience.
Christy is a real local artist based in Calgary — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 28 out of 28 guests who've painted with Christy say the instruction was amazing. Emma M. said: 'My Mom and I had a great time! Christy was really great and super friendly! The music in the pub was quite loud though.'
Bubblemania Café is a local venue in Calgary — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Paint Nite events happen at places like this by design — venues with character, regulars, and a bar. It can get lively. That's what makes it a night out rather than a class.

Candy Cane Santa Hat Chickadee is a winter painting — cozy seasonal vibes for a great night out.
Yaymaker is Paint Nite. We brought both brands together under the Paint Nite name — same artists, same events, same format we invented in 2012. More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in Calgary, you're in the right place. Welcome back.
Your ticket to Candy Cane Santa Hat Chickadee includes the canvas, all the paint you'll need, the use of brushes and an apron during the event, and step-by-step instruction from Christy. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Bubblemania Café — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.
Bubblemania Café 's doors open at 2:00 PM, the event starts at 7:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 6:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Christy starts the painting.
You can reschedule your ticket to any other Paint Nite event up to 8 hours before this one starts. Rescheduling more than 48 hours in advance is free; within 48 hours of the start time there's a $20 fee per ticket. You can't reschedule within 8 hours of the start time, but if an emergency comes up, reach out to our customer service team and we'll do our best to help. Event tickets are not refundable, but your reschedule codes never expire, so you can redeem them whenever it suits you. If Paint Nite cancels this event, you'll receive a full automatic refund.
