Learn to paint a large-scale illustration with spray paint
Spray painting, whether on the street or in a studio, brings versatility and speed to any project as it quickly covers large surfaces and dries instantly.
Miguel Ángel has been dedicated to the world of urban art for years, working primarily with this technique. So much so that he has even developed a signature style in which he expertly combines hyperrealism, cubism, and an expressive use of color with the strength of graffiti—and which has been come to be known by specialists as "post-neocubism."
In this course, learn to paint realistic portraits with aerosol alongside your teacher, from the initial sketch to the finishing touches.

Reviews
A course by Miguel Ángel Belinchón Bujes
Miguel Ángel was born in Linares, a small town in southern Spain, where he developed his passion for painting and whose walls he spray painted tirelessly with his own name. Nowadays, however, he has traveled half the globe covering it with his own style: post-neocubism.
He has collaborated with brands such as Carhartt, Sephora, and Nespresso, and renowned artists including Deadmau5 are in proud possession of his works.

Amazing tutorial. I've been spray painting for 20 years but I've always been afraid of hyperrealism. Time to finally try it! Thank you and best regards!

Curso fantástico. Aconselho para grafiteiros, pois é um nível difícil para iniciantes. Mas mesmo assim vai valer muito a pena pelo preço pago. Recomendo demais. Belin é top!
