Join Andrew Hucklesby 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.
Andrew's enthusiasm for watercolour
painting is infectious. He is an
experienced tutor and is able to
demonstrate every aspect of landscape
painting. He will encourage you to
improve your watercolours and master
the medium. He will demonstrate a
painting out on location, help you to
produce a sketch/painting on site and
will give you plenty of group and one-
to-one tuition.
NB: This holiday was previously
advertised with Keith Hornblower as the
tutor but for personal reasons he is
unable to teach so Andrew has kindly
offered to step in.
