ABOUT THE PROGRAMChris will share his perspective on street art, graffiti, and muralism, art movements of the current era, drawing on his decades of experience in the field.
This one-day class will address materials, practices, and techniques used in graffiti art, as well as a live demonstration in which Chris will paint a full spray-paint work, breaking down techniques he's developed to create a distinctive visual language.
WHAT TO EXPECT
This workshop is intended as a fun, relaxed, and inspiring experience for everyone that will include both technical information and an open studio style in which participants are invited to paint in their own style.
After the structured portion of the workshop concludes, the space will open to a collaborative group art jam, where you’re welcome to keep hanging out and painting whatever else you’re working on.
YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Chris Dyer
With assistance from Guest Artist Paulina Casati
Chris Dyer is a Peruvian-Canadian visual artist now based in Saint Petersburg, Florida.
A lifelong skateboarder since the mid-1980s, his fine art career began by painting on broken skateboards—an experiment that led to creating more than 100 commercial graphics for some of the biggest brands in the skate industry.
Chris’ funky, soulful expressions have always been rooted in his process of spiritual self-realization. These unique visions have made him one of the most recognized artists in the "Visionary Art" movement, with his canvas paintings exhibited in museums and galleries around the world.
For nearly two decades, Chris has also explored the medium of spray paint, producing large-scale murals in iconic locations such as the Bob Marley Museum in Jamaica, the Beatles Ashram in India, the Balata Refugee Camp in Palestine, a DIY skate park in Havana, and international street art museums in Amsterdam, Peru, and Russia.
Since 2004, he has run his own clothing brand, Positive Creations, which shares his art as wearable medicine. In the digital realm, he sold out an NFT collection of 5,555 pieces, launching the Galaktic Gang—a thriving Web3 community that continues to grow.
Passionate about empowering younger artists, Chris has led workshops around the globe, including at shamanic medicine retreats in Peru, India, and Thailand. His work has been featured in publications such as Thrasher, High Times, and Juxtapoz, and in numerous books, including several of his own.
Beyond painting, Chris also produces creative video offerings such as his travel show and Podcast on YouTube.
Across every medium, his intention is the same: to serve as a spiritual channel of love and good vibes, offering art as medicine for humanity. He walks his path as a servant of the Most High, alive in every human being.
