Community Murals
AeroArts have been helping communities paint murals for over 15 years, we have effectively implemented mural workshops that involve the whole process from community consultation to encouraging the hard-to-reach to get involved.
We take you on an artistic journey guiding you through each step of the mural process by discussing your ideas, helping you choose the best-suited themes, showing you how to research images for the mural, composing your drawings for the design, painting the mural from start to finish using a range of art methods and aerosol techniques from block filling shapes, fading tones to finishing outline details. On completing all these stages we can pass on skills and methods that you can take away with you and use within your artwork.
Graffiti-inspired murals bring people together and colour into their lives transforming what was once a polluted dirty wall into an uplifting achievement for all to enjoy. AeroArts believes developing unused spaces into community public art galleries has an important place in our society and inspires young minds to be creative and express themselves individually and positively.
