Hi There, I’m Brad Blaze.
I’m probably best known for painting live onstage at events, where I do these crazy four minute ’speed’ paintings. You may or may not have heard of me and that’s all cool, but I’ve been fortunate enough to combine my passion of art and entertaining since I first appeared on Australia’s Got Talent in 2007.
My main website is www.bradblaze.com.au (check it out if you have time) but I created this site as I get asked all the time if I do commissions and what other art I create.
Performing about 100 shows a year since then, I’ve met and painted heaps of famous people live at events – from sportstars Tiger Woods, Nico Rosberg and Shane Warne, to Hollywood Actors Chris Hemsworth and Eric Bana. It’s been a great journey so far and I’ve proud to say that I’ve also raised over three million dollars for charities along the way. Not bad for a guy that grew up copying the drawings in MAD magazine and who is self taught.
You see, I love creating art, have done so since I was just a kid. I reckon I’ve read just about EVERY art book ever published, well that might be just a slight exaggeration – but seriously, It’s been years and years of a crazy obsession of drawing and painting portraits.
The art critics would probably tear my work to bits, but really, I just pin my ears back and keep creating art that appeals to me.
You’ll see that I love my vibrant colours, fluros and even metallic colours in most of my works, I think they can really brighten up a space. So here is your chance – you might like a painting that could be a statement piece, It could be a talking point, it could transform your space from drab to rad (gees I wish that rhymed better). For whatever reason, it’s here for you to purchase – direct from me, signed (with a certificate of authenticity), sealed (carefully packaged) and, delivered to your front door.
If you are just browsing, that’s all cool too, I still appreciate you popping by, checking out my story and saying g’day on email or facebook. Have a great day, onwards and upwards.
Cheers,
Brad Blaze
