Mastering vibrant colors and finding your voice

Join Tania Rivilis for a 3-day art intensive in Portugal. Under her guidance, you’ll paint for 6 hours a day focusing on color, texture, and composition – that distinctive signature you know her for. You’ll talk about creativity, personal expression, and the ups and downs of being an artist: not just to learn Tania’s tools but to implement them in your own work and define the artistic voice that feels authentic. All while surrounded by Portuguese culture, nature, and fellow artists.

This format offers


Artistic growth

Learn directly from Tania through immersive painting sessions: 6 hours every day to dive into Tania’s approach, for 3 days straight

Art materials to work with

They are included so that you don’t have to overpack or fear using your oils – just show up, learn new techniques, and work.

Personal guidance

Implement new techniques with Tania’s assistance: she’ll help both with the basics and the ways to highlight your unique style

Vibrant setting

The studio is located in the city center, just 10 minutes away from the beach – to try the best of Portuguese cuisine, breathe in the warm ocean breeze, and relax.

Location & Community

The workshop takes place in the center of Setubal (40 minutes away from Lisbon) – a roomy space filled with natural light and air.

The workshop team consists of your art peers with whom you’ll be studying, painting, and sharing your stories and artistic path. From experience, these are the connections you’ll cherish the most.

Words from our Artists


FAQ

Is it an art retreat?

This is a blend of a traditional workshop and rest, so you may call it a workation. Our goal here is for artists to study the master’s techniques and to explore ways to build their own artistic practice. You learn from modern masters, honor the foundations, and play around with what’s going to be your thing. But this is not a boot camp where we’ll drill you to sweat. We still want you to have a holiday and a good rest, talk openly about what moves you and laugh a lot, smell the ocean, see the cliffs, taste some good wine. We believe that creativity and inspiration are key to any development.


Who is the Council for?

Plus, we love having more cool people at our group meals – the more, the merrier! Just keep in mind that the workshop itself is for registered participants only.

Join us if you are:- A part-time artist aspiring to go full-time and grow as an artist, committed and ready to work- A seasoned creator seeking to refine your voice, expand your network, and get to the next level.


How is the workshop scheduled?

The workshop dates are October 30–November 1 and November 6–8 (both Friday–Sunday), and here’s how it flows:

We’ll be fully immersed in the art process from morning to evening, painting, experimenting, and learning together. We have 6 hours of art classes per day with Tania Rivilis: from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, and then from 1:30 to 4:30 pm. And finish each day with something fun to do to get to know each other better, explore Setubal, and have some good fulfilling vacation.

Are meals and accommodation included?

For all 3 days of the workshop, you have lunch included in the base price: we’ll dine together and enjoy delicious Portuguese food. For breakfasts and dinners we’ll share all the places to visit around the city so that you have the flexibility to go for what you personally want to have: from nice pizza to sushi to fresh seafood or Brazilian steaks.

For the accommodation, we’ve partnered with guesthouses and hotels around the city center to offer you special discounts – this way you can be flexible in choosing your lodging, using their exclusive prices.


Can I bring a guest with me?

Absolutely! You’re more than welcome to bring a guest along. Setúbal and the surrounding areas are full of amazing things to explore – stunning beaches, local markets, wine tastings, and breathtaking nature spots. While you're immersed in painting, your guest can enjoy everything the region has to offer.
