Today, we walked to the graffiti art tour, and on our way we admired the beautiful sights of Melbourne. On the tour, we explored the many streets where street artists come out and create their art/designs. We learned a lot about street art and the various techniques street artists use to create their designs. We even saw two authentic Banksy stencil art designs! After, we went to a workshop where they taught us how to make our own stencils for stencil art. We got to use our stencils for our artworks.
