Book Your Creative Experience in the Algarve
Whether you have just a few hours or a full week — there’s a soulful way to immerse yourself
in the light, landscape, and rhythm of this place.
Art Escapes
Looking for more than just a class — something spacious, inspiring, and full of discovery?
Our multi-day journeys offer a deeper way to engage with watercolor and the Algarve’s stunning terrain.
• East Algarve Art Escape: Light & Layers (Nov 5–9, 2025)
is a five-day plein-air painting journey through the East Algarve. We follow the light, paint outdoors, and explore the subtle beauty of layers — in both landscape and watercolor technique.
• Rio Guadiana Trail (Oct 25–Nov 1, 2025) is a slow hiking retreat curated by GO–Breathe–GROW (deutschsprachig), with Lighthouse joining as a creative partner.
Algarve em Aguarela
Watercolor can feel elusive — but once it flows, it opens up a whole new way of seeing.
If you’re looking for a calm, soulful space to slow down, learn the essentials, and gently deepen your creative skills, this is for you.
Choose from themed one-day courses like Barcos de Olhão and Portas e Janelas de Olhão — designed to explore core watercolor techniques while tuning in to the atmosphere of a place.
Step by step, I’ll guide you through observation, color, and expression — with clarity, joy, and just enough adventure.
Sketchwalks
Discover Faro or Olhão with a sketchbook in hand.
These relaxed, small-group walks invite you to tune in to atmosphere, detail, and everyday charm — all while gently developing your drawing practice.
We stop to sketch, observe, and share. It’s about slowing down and seeing more.
Scroll down to find the experience that speaks to you and book your place in advance — each one is guided with heart, care, and a love for this unique place.
