About the artwork:

Late in 2025 I was commissioned to make a mural for PepsiCo, it was the most I have ever been paid for a painting. I invested the money to create this range of premium, museum quality prints that really do my artwork the justice I think it deserves. I searched the globe to select the best materials available, producing them in strictly limited editions of just 20 hand signed and numbered pieces per artwork. They truly are a collectors item worthy of your walls.

The substrate is a beautiful, smooth, 210GSM acid free paper sourced from Germany, this is an important factor that ensures that the artwork won't fade or corrode for decades to come. I've then used a SwissQ printer to produce these stunning editions, the same model used for reproductions by the likes of Tate, MoMA and The National Gallery. The print quality and colour matching is second to none.

In my original paintings I use a range of gloss and matte mediums to give depth to the pieces, this is something that I wanted to replicate in my print editions. I've achieved this by applying a spot gloss varnish to elements of these prints. It's hard to show this off to it's full potential in photographs alone, but you will notice that the black lines have a thick gloss texture that sits raised above the rest of the image, creating a fantastic shine that takes the prints to a new level. Some of the colours also have a metallic finish.

Measuring 500 x 500 mm, the editions are sold unframed, carefully flat packed between layers of double walled cardboard. All orders are sent by a tracked and insured courier service. They are individually hand signed and numbered and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. The edition number you are purchasing may differ from that pictured.

Inspired by the energy of everyday life and the people within it, his work celebrates the beauty in the ordinary, transforming it into something extraordinary. His art speaks to all ages, sparking curiosity and imagination in those who engage with it.

Munday’s paintings are alive with characters, creatures and hidden surprises. Every piece is packed with rich details waiting to be discovered and interpreted by the viewer. His signature style of bold black outlines and vivid block colours creates an electrifying visual impact. Perhaps best known for his iconic crowd paintings, Munday captures a sea of unique individuals, each one distinct yet forming a powerful collective. His work is a vibrant tribute to diversity, illustrating the strength and beauty of community.

Munday’s artistic journey began in the early 2000s as a teenage graffiti artist, leaving his mark on urban spaces through street art and stickers. A suggestion from a fellow artist led him to experiment with canvas, where he found a new home for his creativity. His street art roots remain integral to his practice today, with spray paint and marker lines infusing his work with raw energy. Whether adorning gallery walls or revitalising public spaces, his art remains accessible and engaging.

His work has been exhibited in prestigious institutions such as The Royal Academy of Arts, The Arnolfini and The Hayward Gallery, and he is frequently invited to paint live at international art fairs and events, including The Affordable Art Fair Amsterdam and London Fashion Week. With recent solo exhibitions across Europe and Asia, Munday’s reach continues to expand globally.

In 2019, he collaborated with IKEA to release a highly detailed coloring poster in his signature style, selling over 30,000 copies worldwide. His work extends beyond traditional art spaces, often studied in schools worldwide. Teachers and students alike engage with his art as a tool for creativity, reinforcing his belief that art is not just to be observed but to be interacted with, explored and brought to life.
