ARTICULATE

ART

We paint murals, portraits and commissions by hand — and we teach anyone who wants to learn. Brushes, not screens.

Why Articulate?

We don’t sell prints of somebody else’s idea. Articulate paints original work for walls, rooms and people and teaches the rest of the city to do the same.

Taught by painters

Every class is run by somebody who paints for a living, not a hobbyist with a lesson plan.

Everything supplied

Paint, boards, brushes, aprons and coffee. Bring nothing but your hands.

Small classes

Nine people maximum. Enough hands for the room to feel alive, few enough that yours get looked at.

Sized to your room

A hallway canvas or a four-storey gable. We quote to the wall you actually have.

Happy walls

Nine in ten commissions come from somebody who walked past one of ours and asked who painted it.

FAQ

The questions we get asked most, answered plainly. Still have one? Call the studio and ask.

How soon can you start a mural?

Usually two to four weeks, depending on the weather and the queue. Small interior pieces can often start sooner.

Do I need any experience to join a class?

None at all. Most people who walk in have not painted since school. That is exactly who the classes are built for.

What ages do you teach?

Six to ninety-six. Kids on Saturday mornings, adults on weeknights, and mixed family sessions once a month.

What if I do not like the first sketch?

Then we sketch again. Every commission includes three concept rounds before a drop of paint touches the wall.

How does a commission actually work?

A visit, a measure, three sketches, then paint. You get photographs at the end of every day we are on site.

How do payments work?

A third to hold the dates, a third when the sketch is signed off, the rest when it is finished. Classes are paid per term.
