Kiarra Jezek (Regional Manager) and Alison Thomsitt (Indie School Wodonga Teacher) worked together to create and trial art workshops for the 2022 Indie Art Show, workshops were trialled over two locations this year (Lavington and Wangaratta). The workshops offered an introduction to street art and an exclusive chance to learn a variety of spray-painting techniques used by renowned street artist Brad Eastman, the workshops were delivered by Indie School Wodonga’s Art Teacher Alison Thomsitt.
After a rundown on aspects of street art and a few practice activities, learners were given the opportunity to experiment with different techniques in a dedicated spray painting space, they then went back to the classroom for a short design session using masking tape to create a design. Once learners were armed with their design, they then created their final masterpiece outside.
