Chronology of work
We are a self monitored group of independent mural artists with our own unique styles, clients, methods and cost structures. Browse through our website portfolios and between us you will find the mural you want.
Our aims are –
To promote the use of murals in both public and private spaces, for both decorative and architectural use.
To advocate a pursuit of excellence in the art and to conduct works in a reliable and highly professional manner by encouraging standards of good practice.
To foster an environment of goodwill for the sharing of knowledge and experience and thus encouraging the development of the professional and artistic interests of our members.
To provide the prospective and established client with over 50 years experience, a wide choice of styles and techniques with the assurance of a professional approach and to assist in sourcing an appropriate muralist for works considered.
