Did you know?
That corporate companies often auction Brad's paintings for charity following his shows? or you may just want to keep them yourself - his paintings are hung in many Top 500 company offices and boardrooms.
Innovative Shows
Although considered to be the fastest painter in the world, Brad Blaze is hired by companies around the world not just for his talents, but his ability to put together entertaining shows and innovative presentations.
He has entertained at large gala dinner awards nights around the world, speed painted CEO's at company anniversaries, painted celebrities at charity fundraisers and launched cars (BMW Z4), buildings (Tampines 1 in Singapore) even medications (Dermatolgy Conference USA) in spectacular fashion.
Sure, he paints fast, which is really amazing – but that is only the half of it. Let’s talk about the entertainment aspects:
Audiences will be in awe as paintings are made in minutes. Whether he is painting an iconic person, a CEO or celebrity, or a product, he keeps the audience guessing as to who or what he is painting, only revealing the subject with a spin of the canvas in the final breathtaking moments;
Brad utilises large canvases and where possible, live-to-screen footage. With music pumping and fast action this is a high adrenilin entertainment;
What really sets Brad’s performance apart is the comedy audience involvement, which he has performed throughout Australia, Asia and the United States. As it is very visual entertainment, the comedy can relate to all guests – Brad has performed alot of shows for non-English speaking guests. Willing audience guests may find themselves onstage mimicking Elvis dance moves, answering trivia on a famous celebrity or moving like Michael Jackson. With his outgoing personality, Brad ensures that is good clean fun and suitable for the audience.
Did you know that Brad has worked as a magician? He uses fire in some shows and presentations to amazingly reveal a company logo or a key message.

Hi Brad, thanks so much for helping us out at the Bosom Buddies Charity Ball last Saturday night by doing the speed-painting segment, it was for me the absolute highlight of the night and really helped ensure that it wasn’t just another boring old black tie ball.

Man, this bloke is a genius! We were totally filled with awe as we witnessed him completing a painting in less than 5 minutes.”

"Firstly, a massive 'Thank You' for an awesome performance on Saturday night. All people were saying was “WOW”. Our clients are always dubious at the best of times to try something unseen or untested, but you certainly changed this client's mind with your performance for our Bond event. Your professionalism, willingness to work within the vision of the event, and your enthusiasm during the night was nothing short of wonderful. You truly delivered on what you promised."
