Step by step

  1. Arrival and meet-up: Gather at our designated street art spot in Benin City where your lead artist will welcome everyone and distribute safety gear.
  2. Intro to tools: Learn about the different types of spray cans, the science of paint pressure, and how to swap "caps" for various effects.
  3. Safety briefing: We cover the essential "do's and don'ts" of spray painting to ensure a safe, fun environment for the whole group.
  4. Sketching the vision: Use markers or chalk to outline your design on the wall or canvas, getting the proportions just right before the paint flies.
  5. First lines: Start with "outlining" techniques, learning how to move your arm and body to get smooth, consistent lines.
  6. Filling and fading: Discover the art of color blending and gradients to give your public art piece depth and pop.
  7. Detailing: Add the "highlights" and "lowlights" that make a piece truly stand out against the Benin City urban backdrop.
  8. Group photo and cleanup: Capture your masterpiece with a professional group shot before we handle all the site cleanup and waste disposal.

Let’s bring some fresh color to the ancient heart of the Benin Empire!
