Join Rob Dudley on this exciting
opportunity to paint in the Western
Algarve where we will paint some
beautiful Portuguese scenes.
The Algarve is well known for it's
amazing light conditions and vibrant
colours from the vivid blue skies and
turquoise waters to it's lush green and
colourful vegetation as well as the
rustic tiled and coloured traditional
buildings.
The Western Algarve is more rural,
rustic and peaceful than the hustle and
bustle of the Central Algarve with it's
sleepy harbours, quiet mountain
villages and un-spoilt coastline.
The holiday will be based in the
traditional fishing village of Burgau
where there is an abundance of
painting material within walking
distance of the hotel.
We will also visit the coastal towns of
Lagos (15 mins away) and Praia Da
Luz (5 mins away) where you can
paint anything from fishing harbours,
old forts, traditional Portuguese tiled
buildings, churches and town squares
to multi-coloured fishing boats with
palm trees, beaches and the Algarve
Coast.
There are plenty of traditional
Portuguese villages nearby as well as
Cape St Vincent and the west coast
within reach.
Rob will show you tricks for getting the
amazing effects of water, light and
reflections so you get the most from
your painting. With his enthusiastic
approach he will teach you many tips
and techniques through
demonstrations and plenty of one-to-
one teaching. He will show you how to
simplify scenes with the use of tone
and colour.
