Working with Susan was a pleasure. She was always prompt, on time and did what she said she would do. Susan is a very hard hard worker. She was always here before me, and stayed working after I left. Not to mention all the up and down on the Ladders and scaffolding. Her color choices and design of my mural was outstanding. She really nailed it. I get compliments on it all the time. People say that it suits the area I am in. Really has the vintage look that draws notice. I am so happy that I found Susan to do the job for me. Steve Cook Jons Plant Factory Burnaby, BC

I teach a secondary school course on Urban Studies with one unit focused on street art and its significance to urban culture. I wanted my students to learn about the techniques of creating street art and graffiti for themselves and reached out to Chad to see if he was interested in helping. Chad communicated clearly and offered suggestions on how to make the workshop go smoothly. He was prompt in coming to our school and worked one on one with my students, encouraging and praising their efforts as they experimented with different techniques. The students appreciated Chad's input and came away with some unique and creative pieces of their own. Overall, Chad's professionalism and ability to connect with people were first rate and I'd highly recommend him to anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the best place to see street art in Vancouver?

Gastown is one of the best places to see street art in Vancouver. The neighborhood is known for its brick buildings and cobblestone streets, and the street art adds to the area's unique character. The alleyways in Gastown are particularly worth exploring, as they are home to a number of large wall murals. East Hastings Street is another area in Vancouver that is known for its street art. The street is home to a number of murals and graffiti art, and it is a popular spot for photographers and street art enthusiasts. Mount Pleasant and Commercial Drive are also great places to see street art in Vancouver. The annual Vancouver Mural Festival, which takes place in Mount Pleasant, features a wide variety of street art from local and international artists, making it a great time to check out the street art scene in the city. Additionally, many artists and collectives organize mural projects and exhibitions through the year.

Is graffiti illegal in Vancouver?

In Vancouver, graffiti is considered a form of vandalism and is illegal. The city has strict laws in place that prohibit the unauthorized painting or marking of public or private property. The City of Vancouver has a graffiti management program in place that aims to reduce and prevent graffiti vandalism. This program includes enforcement, education, and awareness campaigns, as well as community mobilization and partnerships with property owners, businesses and other organizations. Under the Vancouver Charter, Section 595, it's illegal to damage or destroy property, that also includes graffiti. If a person is caught committing graffiti, they can face fines, community service, and even jail time. Property owners are also responsible for removing graffiti from their property in a timely manner, failure to do so can lead to fines. The city also offers a free graffiti removal service for property owners and business operators, as well as a graffiti reporting service, which allows residents to report graffiti vandalism and request its removal. The City of Vancouver recognizes the difference between graffiti vandalism and street art, and it supports and encourages the development of legal graffiti walls and mural projects as a way to offer alternative spaces for graffiti artists to express themselves.

How much does it cost to hire a mural painter in Vancouver?

The cost of hiring a mural artist in Vancouver can vary depending on a number of factors, including the size and complexity of the mural, the location, and the artist's level of experience. On average, a mural can range anywhere from a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands of dollars. A small mural, such as a mural that covers the side of a building or a single wall, can cost anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 depending on the complexity of the design and the artist's experience. A larger mural, such as one that covers an entire building, can cost upwards of $50,000 or more. It is important to note that the cost of a mural also includes expenses such as materials, insurance, and permits. Also, some artists may charge extra for maintenance and preservation services. When budgeting for a mural, it's important to keep in mind that the cost of hiring a professional mural artist is a worthwhile investment, as it can greatly enhance the aesthetic appeal of your building or neighborhood, and increase the value of your property. It's also worth mentioning that some artists work with a sliding scale, and some organizations, like the City of Vancouver, provide funding for mural projects, so research and inquiring about grants may help lower the cost.

How can I commission a mural in Vancouver?

Commissioning a mural in Vancouver is a great way to add color and personality to your building or neighborhood. One of the first steps in commissioning a mural is to research local mural artists and find one whose style aligns with your vision. Many mural artists have websites or social media accounts where you can view their portfolio and contact them to discuss your project. Once you have found an artist whose work you like, you will need to discuss the details of your project with them. This includes the size of the mural, the location, the budget, and the theme or concept of the mural. It's also important to consider the maintenance and preservation of the mural, some artists can provide that service too. Next, you will need to obtain the necessary permits and approvals from the city. In Vancouver, mural projects are typically reviewed and approved by the local government and the community. This may include a public hearing or consultation process. It's also important to consider that some artists may have a waiting list, so it's important to plan in advance. Finally, once the permits are obtained, you will work with the artist to finalize the design and schedule the installation. This process may take several months, so it's important to plan accordingly. Commissioning a mural can be a rewarding experience, adding a unique and meaningful addition to the community.
