Graffiti art in Perth

Looking for graffiti artists in Sydney? While poster walls require continual maintenance and changing of posters to keep them updated, urban art by Blackbook Ink leaves a mark forever and is a fantastic way to spruce up an area and make an impression. Custom-designed murals by our truly talented graffiti artists are a marvellous initiative for a diverse range of people helping turn imagination into reality. Armed with years of experience and an extensive portfolio of accomplished works, Blackbook Ink can transform your space with style and creativity.

Mural history nice thing to know : In the history of mural painting, many techniques have been used: encaustic painting, tempera painting, fresco painting, ceramics, oil paint on canvas, and, more recently, liquid silicate and fired porcelain enamel. In Classical Greco-Roman times, the most common medium was encaustic, in which colours are ground in a molten beeswax binder (or resin binder) and applied to the painting surface while hot. Tempera painting was also practiced from the earliest known times; the binder was an albuminous medium such as egg yolk or egg white diluted in water. In 16th-century Europe, oil paint on canvas came into general use for murals. The fact that it could be completed in the artist’s studio and later transported to its destination and attached to the wall was of practical convenience. Yet oil paint is the least-satisfactory medium for murals: it lacks both brilliance of colour and surface texture, many pigments are yellowed by the binder or are affected by atmospheric conditions, and the canvas itself is subject to rapid deterioration.

Our graffiti artists create unique wall murals for businesses and homes. Blackbook Ink has a team of artists Australia wide. Our team liaise closely with clients to not only determine the correct style or art work but to produce unique art works to suit their needs. Take a look at our portfolio for some examples of previous wall murals and graffiti art ideas we have painted. This selection is not exclusive the style can range from realistic to edgy street art but is only limited by the client and artist’s imagination. See more details on Sydney Graffiti Artists.

Would a mural deter vandalism on your property? In most cases yes, though we find the best approach is to incorporate graffiti lettering within the artwork which is painted by a respected graffiti artist. Should I be worried about the paint fumes? With indoors jobs we can use a low odour water based paint, if there isn’t adequate ventilation or you are concerned about fumes.

Artwork is tailored to suit desired themes and fit event time-frames. We have a number of ways in which your guests can get interactive with the artwork. Use live art as a unique way to spread a message or create awareness for your brand /product. Our temporary free-standing walls require minimal set up and break down times. We use low odour spray paint that is perfect for use at indoor venues, amongst crowds of people. See more details on Melbourne Graffiti Artists.
