Day 2 – Afternoon Location – Sintra: Monseratte

That afternoon we headed to another amazing palace, Monserrate. It is a visually striking blend of Arabic, gothic and Indian influences, and once again is surrounded by beautiful, lush, exotic vegetation. While most everyone explored the palace’s interior, I set up outside to capture its distinct architecture.

After finishing our tour in Sintra, we headed back to Cascais for a little downtime and an amazing dinner. The perfect ending to an adventure filled day!

Day 1 – Sintra

On our first full day of our Portugal Art Trek, we hit the ground running by visiting the fairy tale town of Sintra filled with exotic gardens, palaces and castles. First stop was La Quinta de Regaleira, decorated in an ornate facade and surrounded by enchanting gardens filled with gothic turrets, carved gargoyles and hidden tunnels. We chose this view grand view of the gardens with one of the palaces in the backgrounds and began capturing our first painting of the trip. It was a truly magical setting!
