Can the live painting be done on a smaller scale?

Absolutely! While we love creating large-scale murals in Leeds, we can also work on smaller canvases, boards, or even clothing. We tailor the scale of the live painting to fit your venue's dimensions and your event's specific needs. Whether it's a massive outdoor wall or a series of smaller indoor panels, we make sure the art fits the space perfectly.

What about the mess and the smell of the paint?

Safety and cleanliness are our top priorities. We use low-odour, professional-grade spray paints and set up protective floor coverings and screens to contain any overspray. If your Leeds venue has strict indoor regulations, we can also use water-based paint markers or POSCA pens to create the same high-impact visual effect without the fumes. We always leave the space exactly as we found it.

How long does a live painting performance typically last?

Depending on the complexity and the event schedule, a live painting session usually lasts between 2 and 5 hours. We can time the 'big reveal' of the finished piece to coincide with your keynote speech or the peak of your party. We are very flexible and can work in shifts if your event spans multiple days.

Do we get to keep the artwork after the event ends?

Yes, you do! Once the artist has added the final flourishes, the artwork is yours to keep. Many of our Leeds clients choose to display the finished pieces in their office receptions, breakrooms, or even auction them off for charity. It serves as a lasting, vibrant memory of your event that continues to inspire long after the day is over.

Can we choose the theme or design for the artist to paint?

We love collaboration! You can give us a specific theme, include your brand colours, or even have us incorporate your company logo into the design. Our artists in Leeds will work with you during the planning phase to ensure the final masterpiece aligns perfectly with your event goals and aesthetic. It is a bespoke piece of art created just for you.

Is there an option for guests to join in and paint?

While the main performance is done by our professional artist to ensure a high-quality finish, we can definitely set up a 'participatory' element. We can leave a section of the wall for guests to add their own tags or small details under our guidance. It’s a great way to get everyone in Leeds involved without compromising the final look of the main artwork.

Local culture

Leeds has a rich, beating heart when it comes to urban culture. From the world-class murals at Mabgate to the evolving "Street Art Trail" that winds through the city centre, Leeds is a place that celebrates bold expression. Our live painting service taps into this local heritage, bringing that authentic Yorkshire grit and creativity to your private events. We are inspired by local landmarks like the Corn Exchange and the industrial beauty of the Leeds-Liverpool canal.

Fun Fact: Did you know Leeds is home to one of the tallest murals in the UK? The "Athena Rising" mural near the train station stands at a staggering 47 metres high! While our live event paintings are usually a bit smaller, we bring that same "sky-high" ambition to every canvas we touch. 🎨

Pricing

Our live painting performances in Leeds are bespoke experiences, with pricing reflective of the artist's time, materials, and the scale of the artwork. Generally, costs range from £25 to £55 per person (when calculated based on average guest attendance) or a flat performance fee.
