EASY AND AFFORDABLE PAINTING LESSONS FOR EVERYONE
At First Class Art you will discover your own hidden talent for creating beautiful drawings and paintings that will amaze your family and friends. I believe everyone has the ability inside them, they just don’t know how to access it – that’s where I come in.
I will give you the technical skills and the encouragement to nurture the first class artist lurking inside you.
The majority of my students come to me not having picked up a paintbrush before and believing they couldn’t draw. I quickly show them that isn’t true. With specific training to see the world in a slightly different way I can turn novice doodlers into high selling artists.
But if all you want is develop a relaxing and highly rewarding hobby then our small studio classes are perfect for you.

OUR COURSES

Studio Classes
Our friendly studio classes in a converted convent are the best way to develop your creative skills. All easels are kept a minimum of 2m apart and masks are worn at all times.

Plein Air Classes
Experience the freedom of painting outdoors at hundreds of venues along the Algarve coastline in a safe, uncrowded and stunningly beautiful environment.

Painting Holidays
Due to the Coronavirus, all our painting holidays are now sadly on hold.
Private Lessons
If you prefer not to be in a group environment during these times and you live on the Algarve, I can come to you. Private one-on-one lessons in the comfort of your own home are the perfect way to indulge your creativity.
