GRAFREE-TEA STREET SKOOL

Sunday Nov. 25th Week 3 of grafreetea street skool, Ian was joined this week by Peter(thanks Peter) First up were two slide shows, one a pictorial document of some local graffiti art, that was followed by a step by step guide to spraying a piece on a blank wall. Then it was time to finish the sign that was started last week, the kids filled in the letters with pastels, making them bolder so they stood out more. Next week they are off to wildfire bakery to try out their skills on a real wall. should be fun.
