How it works

- Can Basics: Our pros show you how to hold the spray can, swap nozzles (caps), and control the pressure for clean lines.
- Mapping the Wall: We move to the big canvas or wall, scaling up your 3D sketch using "The Grid" method.
- Shadows and Light: This is the magic step! We teach you where to add highlights and deep shadows to create depth.
- Filling and Blending: You'll learn how to gradient colours together to make your 3D object look realistic and rounded.
- The Outline: Add the final "pop" with crisp outlines that define the edges of your illusion.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need any previous art experience to join?
Absolutely! Our 3D street art workshops in Leipzig are designed for beginners. Our professional artists will guide you through the process step-by-step, from sketching your first lines to mastering the optical illusion. You don't need any prior drawing skills to create something that looks like it's jumping off the wall. We focus on fun and learning at a pace that suits everyone in your group.
What materials are included in the workshop?
We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray cans in a variety of colours, specialized nozzles for different effects, protective gloves, masks, and coveralls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or wall space and all sketching materials. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some old shoes you don't mind getting a bit of dust on!
Is the spray paint safe to use?
Safety is our top priority. We provide professional-grade FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you aren't inhaling paint fumes, and we work in well-ventilated outdoor or indoor spaces. Our instructors give a full safety briefing before we touch a single spray can. We use low-pressure cans which are much easier and safer for beginners to control, ensuring a worry-free creative environment for all ages.
How long does a typical workshop last?
A standard 3D street art session in Leipzig usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the theory of perspective, practice your can control, and complete a full 3D masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive masterclass, we can extend the duration to suit your needs. We always ensure there is plenty of time for photos with your finished work!
What happens if it rains on the day?
Leipzig weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered! We have access to several cool indoor locations and sheltered areas across the city. If the forecast looks particularly bad for an outdoor session, we can usually pivot to an indoor space or reschedule. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we almost never have to cancel a workshop due to staffing issues.
Can you accommodate large groups?
We are very flexible with group sizes! Whether you are a small group of 5 friends or a large corporate team of 100, we can accommodate you. For larger groups, we simply bring in more professional artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention and guidance. It’s a fantastic way to bond, whether it’s for a birthday, a stag do, or a team-building event.
How does the payment process work?
No upfront payment is required when you book with Graffitifun! We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you only pay after the experience is complete. This makes it easy for group organisers to manage their budgets without the stress of immediate deposits. You can pay via invoice or bank transfer after you've had your fun and created your art.
