UrbanCanvas

Established in 1997.

We have been described as “masters of visual pavement art” and “innovative workshop artists”

Creating works that would grace any gallery of modern art.

Art that has no ego;  a true collaboration between the artist and the public!

People have the opportunity to leave their mark, be part of something bigger than themselves and creatively play on the streets! All the works presented on this site have been created in this way and bears witness to the often latent, creative talent that exists in everybody.

Given the opportunity, we can all become artists!

We have worked all over the UK, Ireland, Europe, Istanbul, Bahrain, Singapore, Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Between 1998 and 2003 we organised the UK’s only annual festival of visual street art.

Currently we organise The James Carling International Pavement Art Competition in our home city of Liverpool, UK

We proudly receive NO Arts Council funding or public grant of any kind! We make our living solely on the sale of our work and services – Just as it should be!

All our work is ephemeral and exists for the moment; because nothing lasts forever!
