AKS
David Fenton, Graffiti artist
Details | Special gallery | Media clips | Contact us
Born in Australia, growing up in Adelaide in the early 80s was AKS's background for becoming a graffiti artist. Over the years, this amazing art form has been honed to a level that, looking at these photos, speaks for itself.
As one of the only graffiti artists in the country with an agent, AKS has been kept busy with painting pieces in shops, businesses and for various council projects.
One speciality is "Live Painting" at youth events, festivals etc. AKS can work on his own or can include closely supervised volunteers who would like to try their hand at "art with a spray can"! He often is introduced at the beginning of the event and continues painting at the back of the stage while the event continues. Seeing the piece unfold during the event is something that people of all ages can't help but marvel at. At the end of the event you have a piece of art - created while you wait!
Discussions on design are encouraged and welcomed. Characters, words and logos can be designed and painted to your specification.
If you would like a youth room livened up, a logo sprayed on a wall or a board, a community project to brighten up an underpass and get local kids off the street, then AKS is the one you're looking for. The sky is the limit as to where AKS's skills can be used, so, get your thinking caps on and click below to ask about booking his considerable talents!
"Just to say - yesterday went really well and we were really happy with David. Please say a big thank you to him he was a pleasure to work with and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. He created a lot of interest, his work is fantastic and we are going to frame it and put it up in our new offices." - Ann Frances Jeffrey, Cohesion Design Services Ltd
"AKS is great to work with. Very easy to get on with, he is able to put young people at ease straight away. Reliable, helpful and beautiful art work, this graffiti artist is good on camera as well as with a can of paint!" - Caledonia TV, Teens on Trial for Channel 4
"I brought six of our youth group to Saturday's event where David Fenton was painting. Seeing graffiti used in a positive way like this was very inspirational for the youth and myself. Three days later we have applied for funding to have someone like David come and paint our youth centre with the local young people!" - Mr S Jones, Cephas Project, Huddersfield
"I wanted to drop you guys an e-mail to let you know how happy I was with the graffiti workshop on Friday. Not only are their [David & Neil's] artistic talents superb but they were able to command respect from the young people that I have not seen done by any other artists I have employed. I asked the young people to complete a quick questionnaire and they all rated the workshop as 'excellent'. I look forward to working with you in the future." - Fiona Paul, Youth & Projects Officer, Hertsmere Borough Council
