HOW IT WORKS

I create bespoke murals for businesses, public spaces and private clients.

Whether you’re looking for a permanent mural, a live painting experience or a large-scale commercial commission, I aim to make the process straightforward from the initial idea through to the finished artwork.

TELL ME ABOUT YOUR PROJECT

Start by telling me what you have in mind.

To give you an accurate idea of what's involved, I'll need:

  • Photos of the wall or space

  • Wall dimensions

  • Your brief, idea or inspiration

  • Moodboards or reference images, if you have them

  • Details of any ventilation on site

  • When I'll have access to the space

  • Whether I'll be working alone or alongside other contractors

Don't have everything figured out yet? That's fine. We can work through the possibilities together.

QUOTE, CONCEPT & SCHEDULE

Once I understand the project, I'll provide a detailed quotation based on the size, complexity, location and requirements.

Once the quote is accepted and your deposit has been paid, I'll create a Photoshop concept superimposed onto your wall.

This gives you a realistic visual idea of how the finished mural could look in your space before I start painting.

Once the concept is approved, we set the date and the project goes into the diary.

I PAINT THE MURAL

This is where the concept comes to life.

Depending on the brief, surface and environment, I use a combination of:

Spray paint · Emulsion · Airbrush · Brushes · Markers

The techniques and materials are chosen specifically for each project to achieve the best possible result. If something cannot be used ie: spray cans because of the fumes, please mention it during the brief.

YOU GET THE FINISHED ARTWORK

Once the mural is complete, you have a bespoke piece of artwork created specifically for your space.

The finished project can also be photographed and filmed for you to enjoy and share.

Want a video of the process?
Just mention it during the briefing and I can arrange this as part of the project.

BOOKING

A 50% deposit is required to secure your booking date.

The remaining 50% is due on completion of the mural.

For overseas commissions, full payment is required at the time of booking.

For international projects, the client is responsible for arranging transport, accommodation and any materials required on site, unless otherwise agreed in the quotation.

The Tools I Use

I use a range of techniques depending on the project, the venue and the desired finish. The right approach depends on factors such as location, ventilation, access, timescale and whether the artwork is being created live or as a permanent installation.

Spray Paint

Advantages

  • Fast coverage for large-scale murals

  • Creates an engaging live painting experience

  • Ideal for outdoor projects and events

  • Produces great behind-the-scenes and social media content

  • Durable, long-lasting finish

Considerations

  • Requires good ventilation due to paint fumes

  • Best suited to outdoor locations or well-ventilated indoor spaces

Airbrush

Advantages

  • Highly detailed and precise

  • Low odour, making it suitable for many indoor environments

  • Can be used on walls, vehicles, panels and a variety of other surfaces

  • Ideal for photorealistic artwork and smooth gradients

Considerations

  • Requires an electrical supply for the compressor

  • Air hose and power cable need to be managed safely during installation

Brushes & Paint Markers

Advantages

  • Virtually silent and odour-free

  • No electricity required

  • Suitable for both indoor and outdoor venues

  • A good option where spray paint isn't permitted

  • Can be incorporated into interactive events where clients or guests participate

Considerations

  • Slower than spray painting on large areas

  • Creates a quieter working process with less visual impact during live events

FAQ

How long does a live painting take?

Most live paintings are created over the course of the event, from 2–4 hours to several days, depending on the artwork and event schedule. I usually begin with a lightly sketched composition rather than a completely blank canvas, but I'm happy to adapt to your preference.

Can the artwork be customised?

Yes. Every artwork is created specifically for the event, venue, brand or brief.

What size artwork can you create?

From small indoor canvases to large-scale murals and architectural installations.

Can guests interact with the artwork?

Yes. Depending on the event, guests are welcome to watch the painting develop, ask questions and, if appropriate, take part in selected elements.

Do you travel internationally?

Yes. I've worked across Europe, North America, the Middle East and Asia, and I'm always happy to travel for commissions.

What do you need on site?

This depends on the project and the materials being used. Typically, I require a suitable working area, access to power (where applicable) and enough space to work safely. Full requirements are provided before the event.

What surfaces can you paint on?

I can paint on a wide range of surfaces, including walls, canvases, vehicles, windows, panels and many other materials. If you're unsure whether your surface is suitable, just get in touch.

Can the artwork be kept after the event?

Yes. Most live paintings are created on canvas or removable panels so they can be displayed, auctioned or installed after the event. Alternatively, the artwork can be created directly onto a permanent surface if required.
