About
Hi, I’m Anna Matos. I’m a multidisciplinary artist passionate about making creativity accessible, fun, and meaningful.
I believe everyone is creative and art should be accessible to everyone. You don’t need to be “an artist” to enjoy making things.
Over the past few years, I’ve been helping people explore their creativity through artistic experiences that combine art, well-being, and experimentation.
My workshops are designed for anyone, whether you’re just curious to try something new or you already enjoy making art. I offer a safe and relaxed space to disconnect from the daily grind, explore new techniques, and rediscover the simple joy of creating something with your own hands.

I loved it. The teacher was great and I felt so relaxed, I got completely absorbed by the activity. I highly recommand it.
I really enjoyed this urban sketching course in Lisbon with Anna Matos! She is a very patient and encouraging teacher who provides thoughtful guidance and support throughout the course, making it particularly suitable for beginners. I found her advice on how to get started with sketching and mixing watercolours particularly useful. Starting out can feel a little overwhelming, but she makes it much approachable and more enjoyable.
Lisbon is also a wonderful city for urban sketching, with beautiful streets and inspiration everywhere.
I can definitely recommend this course, especially if you're a beginner!
We had a great time, learned a lot from the experience and draw/painted two very nice sketches from Praça do Comércio. We're eager to keep practicing with all the tips and instructions that Anna gave us. Recomend!
We had a great time at the workshop. We learned a lot, got many info on materials (for future practice) and ended up with very nice sketches of Praça do Comércio! I do recommend for begginers like myself for sure (:
I had a wonderful time taking this painting class with Anna Matos. She was a great teacher: knowgeable, clear and patient. She took me through the different steps of urban sketching: drawing fast with pencil, coloring with watercolors and then using the thin marker for definition…and voilá! I got a beautiful painting and a great souvenir of my trip to Lisbon, Portugal. The place was well selected, and I was lucky to be the one to the only one in the class that day. I definitely recommend it to others, with or without painting experience. Obrigada Anna. Best, Elisa
