Come and discover the traditional and contemporary techniques of tiled painting in a relaxed and creative environment! In this workshop you will create your own hand-painted tiles - no experience is required.
What do we do?
- Know the history of tiles
- Learn basic painting techniques
- Create a unique piece
1. We will make a brief presentation on tiles in Portuguese culture
2. Technical demonstration: Explanation of materials: brushes, pigments, tiles - Demonstration of basic techniques (glass painting, patterns, lines and fillings)
3. Individual creation: Participants sketch and paint their own tiles - Individual accompaniment during the process.
4. Conclusion: Sharing of the created pieces.
Note: The traditional Portuguese technique of tile painting, as it has been performed for centuries, includes cooking in a high temperature oven (minimum 24h).
We privileged this technique for its authenticity, but we also offer a faster option, without cooking, for those who want to take the piece on the day itself.
The delivery of cooked tiles is combined directly with the participant.
