I traveled to the beautiful country of Portugal with my family in October. I did not realize that the fall would mean more rain. As I was checking the weather throughout the week, I realized that it was scheduled to rain when I had a tour scheduled. Not wanting to be miserable outdoors in the rain, I rescheduled the tour and looked for indoor activities. One activity that came in my search was Hugo's watercolour painting class. The location is close to Sao Bento station and a walk up hill to his study. He was a great host and teacher. Provided us with water, provided us with art history and history of Porto. It was a fun family activity and we each had pride in seeing our finished painting. I had no idea at the beginning that I would make something worth keeping. This class is perfect for all art skills. Hugo is very patient, talented, and a good teacher.
