Johny Vieira is a Portuguese watercolor artist and avid surfer for over 20 years. He has a deep connection with the ocean that vividly shows in his art. It's like he brings the stormy sea's energy right onto the canvas. Painting the ocean with watercolors is his special magic, capturing the sea's spirit with a unique flair and light touch. He sees his art as a way to give back to the ocean that's given him so much.
A natural artist, he delved into painting and drawing techniques at the Technical School of Duran Castaibert, where he was drawn to watercolor process for its no-correction approach and the purity and translucency of its results.
The line that guides his inspiration, comes naturally from inside out, the surf essence itself, the exploration of new spots, the path, the joy, the silence of nature, the connection, the love that we share with the ocean.
He has been lecturing workshops and week camps since 2020, with the same patience and care he puts into each brushstroke. He truly feels excited to share with others the same passion, and to see the progress of their skills happening in real time. Now, he's coming to Lanzarote with his caravan and surfboard to lead his first full program at The Sun Collective, "Watercolor Retreat."
