How it works

  1. Introduction & concept: Meet your pro artist and learn the brain-bending secrets behind anamorphic 3D perspective.
  2. Safety first: Get geared up with your mask and gloves while we explain the basics of spray can safety and technique.
  3. The blueprint: Use chalk and strings to map out the "sweet spot"—the exact point where your drawing will transform into 3D.
  4. Can control basics: Practice your lines, fades, and fills on a practice wall to get a feel for the pressure and flow of the paint.
  5. Outline & distortion: Start sketching your main design, learning how to stretch and pull the image to create that 3D illusion.
  6. Depth & shading: This is where the magic happens! Apply shadows and highlights to give your art volume and "weight."
  7. The finishing touches: Add sharp details and flares to make the artwork look crisp and professional.
  8. The photo reveal: Step back to the viewing point and grab your camera—this is where your art comes to life in photos!
  9. Clean up & wrap: High fives all round as we pack up the gear and you leave with your new street art skills.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join a 3D street art workshop?

Absolutely! Our 3D street art workshops are designed specifically for beginners. Our pro artists in Melbourne break down complex perspective techniques into simple, easy-to-follow steps. You don't need any prior drawing or spray-painting experience to create something that looks like it's jumping off the wall. We focus on fun and 'giving it a go' rather than perfection, so you can relax and let your creativity flow.

What should I bring to the workshop?

Everything you need is included in the booking! We provide high-quality spray cans in a huge range of colours, safety gear including masks and gloves, and the surfaces you'll be painting on. For 3D workshops, we also provide specialized tools to help you map out your perspective lines. Just make sure you wear old clothes and closed-toe shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of 'Melbourne soul' (paint) on!

Is the activity safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary protective equipment, including high-grade respiratory masks and gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoor spaces. Our instructors are professional artists who are experienced in managing groups and ensuring everyone uses the equipment correctly. We also use low-odour, professional-grade paints to ensure the best and safest experience for all participants.

How long does a typical session last?

A standard 3D street art session usually runs between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the fundamentals of 'anamorphic' drawing, practice your can control, and complete a full-scale collaborative or individual 3D piece. If you have specific time constraints for a corporate event or party, we can often adjust the flow to fit your schedule while still ensuring you get the full creative experience.

Do I have to pay upfront to book?

No way! At Graffitifun, we believe in the quality of our experience. You can book your Melbourne 3D street art workshop without any upfront payment. You simply pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied with the experience. This takes the stress out of planning and ensures you can book with total confidence, knowing that we are committed to delivering an amazing time for your group.

What’s the difference between 3D art and normal graffiti?

Great question! Standard graffiti is often focused on lettering and 2D style, while 3D street art (also known as anamorphic art) uses clever perspective tricks to make an image look three-dimensional from a specific angle. In this workshop, you'll learn how to distort shapes so they appear to 'pop' out of the ground or sink into the pavement—it's a mix of art and optical illusion!

What happens if it rains in Melbourne on the day?

Melbourne weather can be a bit 'four seasons in one day,' can't it? Don't worry, we always have a plan B. We work with various undercover and indoor locations across the city that allow us to continue the workshop regardless of the rain. If you have a specific outdoor site in mind, we can discuss backup dates or alternative indoor venues to make sure your 3D art experience goes off without a hitch.
