How it works
- Introduction & inspiration: We start with a quick look at the history of 3D street art and how the "trompe l'oeil" effect works.
- The secret of perspective: Our artists teach you the "viewing point" technique—the specific spot where the image magically turns 3D.
- Sketching the illusion: You'll grab some chalk to map out your design on the ground or wall, ensuring the proportions look right from afar.
- Can control basics: Before jumping into the 3D work, you'll learn how to control the pressure, distance, and angle of the spray can.
- Layering the shadows: The 3D effect comes from depth. You'll learn how to use dark tones to create deep shadows and "holes" in the surface.
- Highlighting the edges: Use bright whites and highlights to make parts of your art look like they are jumping out toward the viewer.
- Refining the details: Add those final touches—shading, textures, and outlines—to make the illusion look incredibly realistic.
- The photo reveal: Grab your camera! This is the best part—seeing your artwork come to life through a lens from the magic viewing point.

We focus on fun and creativity, ensuring everyone walks away with a piece of art they are proud of and a big smile on their face.
Is the spray paint safe to use?
Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable coveralls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint and always conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large indoor halls with proper airflow. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a spray can to ensure a worry-free experience.
How long does the workshop usually take?
A standard 3D street art session in Gondar typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for the introduction, sketching, learning techniques, and finally bringing your 3D masterpiece to life. If you have a specific schedule or are planning a larger event like a festival or company retreat, we can easily tailor the duration to fit your needs perfectly.
What do I need to bring with me?
Everything you need is included in the price! We provide all the spray cans in a wide variety of vibrant colours, the canvases or walls to paint on, all protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and specialized 3D gridding tools. You just need to show up in comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little dusty, and bring plenty of creative energy!
Do I have to pay in advance?
We want your experience to be stress-free, so we do not require any upfront payment. You can book your slot, and the payment is only settled after the workshop is completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience before paying. We accept various payment methods to make it convenient for your group or organization.
Where in Gondar does the workshop take place?
We can host workshops at various cool locations around Gondar, or we can even come to you! If you have a private backyard, a school playground, or an office parking lot, we can set up our mobile studio there. If not, we have several partner locations in the city that offer the perfect backdrop for a day of street art.
Is this activity suitable for children?
Yes, 3D street art is a fantastic activity for kids and teenagers! It helps them understand geometry and perspective in a fun, hands-on way. We usually recommend a minimum age of 8 years old to ensure they can handle the spray cans comfortably. For younger children, we offer slightly modified techniques to keep things easy and enjoyable.
