- Acquisition of the basics of graffiti drawing: construction and deconstruction of letters; management of colour assembly, contrast management; theoretical basis on the placement of shadows and light; letter processing (3D, vanishing point).


- Acquisition of the basics in graffiti painting: Make a tag (signature); make a gradient between several colours; make a contour; understand the size of the support and measure its movements (management of its body in space); make a decoration.


Presentation


The graffiti workshop consists of 9 sessions of 2 hours each:


- 3 drawing sessions (acquisition of the basics of graffiti drawing / choice of fresco, making sketches, preparatory models, distribution of roles). At the end of each session, the last half hour is devoted to the training with a spray paint can (exercise of handling, precision, use of the different techniques that we will use on the fresco).


- 1 spray paint training session. (Session only dedicated to learning how to use the spray paint that remains the key in our activity).


- 5 sessions of fresco realization. The whole session is dedicated to painting, the objective being to finish the fresco for the last session. The facilitator comes to finish the work if necessary and take a picture of the fresco (picture sent to the students).
