Stap voor stap

  1. Introduction and safety: Meet your professional artist guide and get kitted out in protective gear while learning the golden rules of the spray can.
  2. Bristol art history: Take five minutes to learn about the local legends and the evolution of the city's unique street art style.
  3. Can control basics: Learn how various pressures and distances from the wall change the thickness and texture of your lines.
  4. Mastering the 'fill': Practice filling in large areas quickly and evenly without creating drips or uneven patches.
  5. The art of fading: Our artists show you how to blend two or more colours together to create professional-looking gradients and shadows.
