spray paint artist

Aerosol mural creator

A spray paint artist creates artwork using aerosol paint cans, typically working on large surfaces like walls, canvases, or urban structures.

The term encompasses both street artists and graffiti writers working in public spaces and studio artists who use spray paint as their primary medium.

Street performers who create landscape scenes on poster board for tourists are also called spray paint artists: The spray paint artist finished a Saturn-and-mountains piece in under five minutes.
