The Studio Takeover
Two of us rock up, the room turns into a studio, and your team makes one proper piece together. Monday morning? It’s still on the wall.
Two of us, two minds, and all the energy walking through your door. Corporate away-day, school hall or birthday: the room turns into a studio, and everyone leaves with something they made and want to keep. Motion.
Every session comes with the right number of experienced, named artists, always on the floor with your people and bringing the energy. Our signature is the name board: everyone paints their own name, big and bold in street-art style, on a board to take home. Works brilliantly for a team, a classroom or a party. Tell us your starting point and we’ll build the rest around it.
Two of us rock up, the room turns into a studio, and your team makes one proper piece together. Monday morning? It’s still on the wall.
Name boards, legacy walls, interactive murals, curriculum art, assembly talks: the full school experience, built around your pupils, all under one quote.
Built around whoever walks through the door. Sensory-aware, calm where it needs to be, with the right number of artists there throughout so everyone leaves with something they made themselves.
Everyone picks up a brush, makes something real, and takes it home. We bring the kit and clear up after, so all you do is turn up. It's the kind of party people are still talking about after.
Want the energy to live on the wall for good? We design and paint a one-off piece for your space: café, office, classroom or any room of your choice.
Got an idea for a piece that doesn't fit anywhere else on this list? Tell us about it and we'll turn it into something made specifically for you.
Brands and artists hire Ben and Niamh by the hour for creative direction and consultancy. Scoping, design, and how to get the art seen.
A mix of names you’ll know, plus venues, gyms, schools and community groups that we work with.
































Alongside the workshops we take on personalised commissions, brand collaborations, and custom projects with schools and other organisations. Every one’s different, so every one’s quoted on its own. Easiest way in is a quick call.
We didn’t pick the name off a list. Both our mums are called Patricia. Both artists at heart, both the reason we paint. Ben and Niamh met in a sixth-form art class in Northampton, stayed late playing tunes and painting, and honestly never stopped.
One belief runs through all of it. Everyone’s born an artist; it’s just how you get it out of them. The experience is the point. The piece on the wall is just the proof. Motion.
Partners in crime, named after both our mums.
Ben and Niamh have become real partners of ours at Born to Perform. They bring creativity and warmth to every session, and they genuinely care about including everyone. Every person feels encouraged and able to join in their own way. We’d recommend them to any school or charity.
They took our basic designs and made them beautiful, adding real character to a big, empty space. The artwork is stunning, and we’d recommend them to anyone.
I hired Ben and Niamh as a gift for my brother’s new home. They painted a mural in his gym from a design he chose himself. If you’re after an amazing personalised gift, they’re the people to ask.
Had a great experience working with Ben and Niamh. I explained my vision and they tweaked every detail to get it spot on. The work came out better than I imagined. Clean, vibrant and eye-catching.
Ben and Niamh came to paint a mural at our children’s home and instantly became part of the family. They took the time to get to know our young people, who had a say on the colours. The result is more than art. It’s a reflection of our memories, our family and our spirit, and it’s turned a dull space into a real talking point.
Massive thank you to Ben, Nev and the team. We’re made up with the work on the van. Amazing artwork that’s going to help us stand out, and a pleasure working with you all.
We’d seen Ben and Niamh’s work at other venues in town and knew they’d be perfect to refresh our outdated chalkboards. They look beautiful now. Thanks Ben and Niamh, you guys are great!
Working with Ben and Niamh was a pleasure from start to finish. They were responsive, always quick to come back to us, and they took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The finished Ricky Hatton pieces were outstanding, and the artwork got fantastic reactions at our Evening4Ricky charity auction. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Every room’s different, so every quote is too. Tell us the basics and we’ll come back with a proper plan. Motion.
