Eron

This is the work of Italian muralist and spray paint magician Eron. It is hard to believe, but this entire mural was painted using spray paint! His work is often inspired by political and historical events. Each piece is executed with such mastery, made to look like real architecture (this technique is known as Trompe-l’œil). Rather than try to choose which of his murals or works on canvas to share here, I am going to encourage you to check out Eron’s website. You can see progress photos of various murals he has completed, as well as more information about his inspiration.

Discussion for Kids

After looking at Eron’s website, ask kids to pick the painting (mural or otherwise) that they are most intrigued by. Share its title and the reason they picked it in the comments below!
