Summary

Join Sue Ford on this exciting opportunity to paint in the picturesque

medieval town of Obidos and along the Siilver Coast just north of Lisbon.

Details

There is so much to paint in and around Obidos from traditional houses

with pots, flowers and creepers to imposing buildings such as the Castle

and churches all within pedestrianised cobbled streets. We will probably

spend a couple of days in Obidos but there are also subjects outside of the

town including anything from impressive churches to small houses and

streets. We will also visit Caldas Da Rainha that has many historic

buildings, a market (some days) and a lake with reflections. We will also

visit the Silver Coast and paint coastal towns such as Nazare, Sao

Martinho do Porto and/or Peniche which include the imposing Fort of

Peniche.

Sue is passionate about painting and you will be encouraged to achieve

your goals and realise your creative ideas, in a relaxed learning

environment. She includes step by step exercises, one to one tuition and

demonstrations.

With a natural ability to draw, Sue can demonstrate a variety of subjects

and will show you different painting techniques, explain about materials,

the importance of composition and getting the best from your photos and

sketches.
