A Watercolor Adventure in the Algarve, Portugal

$1,140.00

This 5 day workshop is for the watercolorist who enjoys travel and exploration. We will capture Portugal’s southern coast from Faro to Olhao, Tavira, Cacelha Velha, and Vila Real de Santo Antonio, where we will spend a day painting each place.

We will paint a wide variety of subjects, including towns, harbors, and characteristic street scenes along the way.

Portugal has some of the most beautiful Mediterranean light, perfect for painting vibrant watercolors and learning to paint a wide variety of scenes. Spring is the ideal time of year when there are very few tourists and cool, sunny weather.
