Christine Petty
I started Grafix Wall Art in May 2010 after 20 years in Sales and Marketing. And from small beginnings we are now a team of four based in our home-based studio in Auckland, New Zealand. Alex, on the right, is my son and he is in charge of print and production, and Danny on the left, helps with design and installations. The fourth member is my golden lab Elsie. We’ve had her since puppy walking her for the Guide Dog Association. She missed her calling unfortunately and lucky me – I was able to adopt her permanently. She’s a fixture by my feet if you ever come over here to pick up work.
Having always been into art and design it was important that my team is creative so we can provide a customised service to our many and varied clients. Our output now ranges from pre-designed wall decals, wallpapers, wall murals to custom designed and produced wallart, shower screens, splashbacks, floor signage and car and boat decals.
Customers often ask where I get my images from. I have a great variety of sources – but first and foremost I design my own using Adobe Illustrator. I also have access to a host of great illustrators who produce hundreds of thousands of images. Whether it be for logo design or bedroom walls there will be an image to suit you somewhere! I favour NZ artists as there is a great trend in local design with Maori influences.
If you would like to see your work made into a decal, then I am happy for you to contact me through my Contacts page or email me at [email protected]
I love hearing the feedback from my happy clients who say the decals and murals have transformed their walls!
