What kind of surfaces can you paint on during a live event?

During our live painting sessions in Sheffield, the artist typically works on a large canvas, a temporary wooden wall, or even an object like a car! This ensures that there is no permanent damage to your venue's walls. We can also set up 'participant' boards if you want your guests to try their hand at spray painting safely alongside the professional.

Is the spray paint messy or smelly for indoor events?

Not at all! We use low-odour, professional-grade spray paints and set up high-quality floor and wall protection to ensure the surrounding area stays pristine. If your Sheffield event is indoors, we can discuss using water-based paints or ensuring specific ventilation requirements are met so that the only thing lingering is the amazing artwork.

How far in advance should I book a live painter for my event?

We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for weekend slots in the 'Steel City', but we are known for our flexibility. Because we have a large network of backup artists, we can often accommodate last-minute requests. Generally, aim for 4-6 weeks in advance to ensure your preferred artist is available for your specific date.

How long does a live painting performance usually take?

The duration is entirely up to you! Most live painting performances in Sheffield last between 2 and 5 hours. We can time the progress of the piece to match your event's itinerary—starting with a blank canvas as guests arrive and adding the final 'wow' touches just as the main festivities peak.

Can the artist include specific logos or themes in the artwork?

Absolutely! That is the beauty of live art. We can incorporate your company logo, specific brand colours, or a theme that celebrates Sheffield's heritage. Whether it's a launch for a new product or a personal celebration like a wedding, we'll consult with you beforehand to ensure the mural matches your vision perfectly.

What safety measures do you have in place for public events?

Safety is our top priority. Our artists are fully insured and follow strict safety protocols. We provide all necessary protective equipment if guests are getting involved, and we ensure the work area is properly cordoned off to manage the flow of people safely. We can provide risk assessments and public liability certificates upon request.
