Art Dao • Art workshops and mindful sessions in Porto

Hi there, my name is Margarita 👋

I'm a professional artist and I'm happy to invite you for this 3-hours nude painting workshop, where you'll create an astonishing canvas painting under my step by step guidance. We'll discover one of the most complicated objects in art history - human body. You'll learn theory how the concept of human body was changing during decades, how different art styles work with it. Then after material and technical introduction you'll create your own painting with my individual consulting based on your level, chosen reference, and style.

No previous experience is required, I designed this class to be suitable for all levels, especially for beginners! Please pay attention - this is a donation-based event, the suggested donation is 40€, but you're welcome to contribute any amount you're comfortable with at the end of the event. All materials are provided (acrylic painting on canvas + aprons).

Hi, I'm Margarita, and I warmly welcome you to join us for a relaxed wine painting night. It's not a standard class, it’s more a creative party! We’ll paint with wine, taste it, and just enjoy the process without pressure.

We’ll explore how wine behaves on paper - how it flows, stains, and creates soft tones and unexpected textures. No strict rules here, just experimenting, playing, and letting things happen. But no worries, you’ll be guided by a professional artist (means by me :) So even if you’ve never painted before, you’ll feel comfortable.

Come for the wine and art, stay for the atmosphere and good company, leave with your own unique painting and a lot of creative inspiration!
