What exactly is live painting and how does it work?

Live painting is a dynamic performance where our artist creates a large-scale mural from scratch right in front of your guests. It’s perfect for adding a 'wow factor' to events in Cork, as it provides both entertainment and a finished piece of art. Unlike a static gallery, it’s about the process, the energy, and the interaction between the artist and the crowd.

What kind of surfaces can you paint on during an event?

We are extremely flexible! We can paint on large canvases, custom-built wooden walls, or even objects like vehicles or surfboards. If your venue in Cork has restrictions, we can use low-odour water-based sprays or paint markers to ensure a safe and pleasant environment for everyone. We always provide floor protection to keep the venue spotless.

Can the artwork be customised to include our company logo?

Absolutely! We love incorporating logos, brand colours, or specific themes into the mural. Many Cork businesses use our live painting for brand activations to create a memorable visual link to their identity. You can give us a specific brief beforehand, or let the artist improvise based on the vibe of the party.

Is it safe to have spray painting indoors at a venue?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, professional materials and can opt for non-toxic, low-odour spray paint for indoor events in Cork. Our artists are experienced professionals who maintain a clean workspace. We also provide all necessary safety equipment and floor coverings to ensure the venue is left exactly as we found it.

How long does a live painting session usually take?

A typical live painting performance lasts between 2 and 5 hours, depending on the complexity of the design and the duration of your event. We usually arrive an hour early to set up. If you have a multi-day festival in Cork, we can also spread the creation over several days to keep the momentum going!

Do we get to keep the artwork after the event is over?

Yes, the masterpiece is yours to keep! Once the paint is dry, you can display the canvas in your office, shop, or home as a permanent memory of the event. It’s a fantastic way to bring a piece of Cork’s urban culture into your own space. We can even help arrange transport for the finished piece.
