Holidays Listing

Join Seb on this exciting opportunity to

paint in an absolutely delightful place in

the Western Algarve.


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 Caldas De

Monchique where we will paint the

traditional Portuguese architecture,

cobbled streets lined with deciduous

trees and dappled sunlight.


We will also visit other inland places

such as the National Park of Sitio Das

Fontes with its streams, ponds and

quaint buildings plus the historic city of

Silves with its castle.


We will also visit the Algarve coast and

paint around places such as Lagos

Marina, Luz and the fishing village of

Burgau.



Seb has an incredible passion for

painting and so he has a real

enthusiasm for teaching others how to

paint. He will patiently guide you

through the process of choosing a

composition, sketching a subject,

producing the blocking in stage and

building up the layers and he will do

small sketches to illustrate a subject and

he finds compositions in places that

many artists would overlook and will

give you plenty of one-to-one tuition.
