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.
