Searching for graffiti art in Australia? Graffiti art has been around for centuries with scripture and scratchings on walls and in caves and graffiti is a term stemming from the Italian word grafficar meaning drawings and markings.

Urban art by graffiti art professionals from Blackbook Ink takes graffiti art to a whole new level and we cater for diverse requirements and specifications. We are armed with creative vision that is truly exceptional and can be unique and meaningful and we won’t disappoint.
Mural history cool thing to know : In the history of mural painting, many techniques have been used: encaustic painting, tempera painting, fresco painting, ceramics, oil paint on canvas, and, more recently, liquid silicate and fired porcelain enamel. In Classical Greco-Roman times, the most common medium was encaustic, in which colours are ground in a molten beeswax binder (or resin binder) and applied to the painting surface while hot. Tempera painting was also practiced from the earliest known times; the binder was an albuminous medium such as egg yolk or egg white diluted in water. In 16th-century Europe, oil paint on canvas came into general use for murals. The fact that it could be completed in the artist’s studio and later transported to its destination and attached to the wall was of practical convenience. Yet oil paint is the least-satisfactory medium for murals: it lacks both brilliance of colour and surface texture, many pigments are yellowed by the binder or are affected by atmospheric conditions, and the canvas itself is subject to rapid deterioration.
