Very nice experience! - Very nice experience! Hugo showed us the different steps to realize our watercolor. Relaxing and pleasant experience. Hugo also speaks good French, we appreciated his advice. Very good activity to bring back a little souvenir and make a little pose during the day.

A fantastic experience - My daughter and I spent a few days in Porto. And we wanted to do an activity in which to share a nice experience. It was a total hit that surprised us both. In a lovely setting, Hugo taught us the techniques of watercolor painting. The process was very enjoyable and fun, and the end result surprising. Highly recommended.

Creating our own souvenirs - We went to Porto for our anniversary trip. I thought it would be fun to make our own souvenirs. This class was highly recommended and I booked it. I'm so glad that we went. It was fun, educational, and relaxing. Hugo did an excellent job of walking us through how to paint a scene (pre-determined). We walked away with "masterpieces" of our own and wonderful, personalized memories of our trip to Porto. Thank you, Hugo for being a great instructor and sharing your love of art with us.

An unforgettable aquarel experience - A very beautiful moment shared with my mother during an aquarel class. Hugo is an excellent pedagogue: explains with clarity, devotes time to each step and allows even beginners to leave with a very beautiful painting. The studio is very pleasant, we feel welcomed, as in a real space of artist. All the material is made available — just come, listen and put into practice. My mom and I loved it. Thank you, Hugo. I highly recommend this experience.

Fantastic experience!!! - It was great to share this moment with my 9-year-old daughter, to have good ideas of how to paint aquarels and still bring a memory painted by me. I loved and will recommend these sessions to my friends!!!!

Found the water color painting of my dreams at Hugo do Lago! - I found this gem of a shop online, it was the 1st art gallery on my list and I was so fortunate to find the exact water color that I had in my mind’s eye! Gorgeous painting of the Dom Luis bridge with such detail & the size I wanted - quite a large square! Hugo was so kind, he came to our place to hang the painting for us. Each time I open my front door, it puts a smile on my face, I simply love it and I look forward to finding additional paintings from this very talented artist!

Amazing Experience It was great! - What an amazing experience. 3 of us were NOT experienced artist of any kind. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Hugo was super friendly and helpful the entire time. Quaint location and clean studio and work area. It is absolutely worth the time and price. It will be 1 of many experiences. But we will talk about this more. Just do it, it was great!
