Hope it clears up. I use art as a catharsis for when life decides to give me a boot.

You might want to consider this https://www.cypruscollegeofart.com/ . It isn't really taught courses. It's more studio space with youth hostel-style accommodation included in the price. It's really basic but it's really really cheap. The college was founded by a slightly notorious Cypriot artist who only died a few years ago. Many famous artists go there to get away from the BS in their lives. The beach is walkable but the bars and nightlife need a taxi or a bike although people from the place usually go into town en masse.

It's also all ages and you don't really need a portfolio.
