I know its an odd request. But I'm being honest. I have a shop that is under construction at the moment. The entire shopfront is about 10 metres long. I would like someone skilled with spraypainting to do a graffiti style display on it saying "Coming soon" etc. If anyone is interested, it's a high profile space that would be great to work on. Am hoping it can be beneficial to both of us. Once the shop is opened I would also like a similar thing with our logo on it. If anyone has any suggestions or offers please post on here and I'll get in touch with you. It is going to have to be to a high standard though. Thanks

Thanks carcrash. Hopefully we'll find someone to do it. It's basically free advertising for them as well so it should be a win win, if the're mature enough about it

If all else fails contact the unis there are probably a lot of art students in the city who are desperate for some wallspace,exposure and experience.

Kev Gray and the bloke who does the Phlegm magazine have done most of the ones you see in town.

I think you should check with planning regulations. Aren't there planning laws governing shop frontage advertising and facades, etc.?
