Good To Know

Questions, Answered

Do I need an appointment?+
Yes. Black Book is appointment-based, so every client gets a private chair and the time their piece deserves. Get in touch and our booking manager will lock in a spot that suits.
Where are you and can I get there from across Sydney?+
We are at 1 Station St, Emu Plains NSW 2750. Plenty of clients travel in from right across Sydney for the right artist, and it is an easy run by car or train.
Is there parking?+
Yes. There is free parking on site and on the surrounding streets, including wheelchair-accessible parking right out the front.
Can I get there by public transport?+
Easily. Emu Plains train station is a short walk away, so it is a simple trip in on the train from anywhere along the line.
What is the studio like?+
A private, modern studio with a relaxed setup, refreshments while you sit and a team that keeps the whole session easy from start to finish.
Can you design something custom?+
That is most of what we do. Tell us your idea, bring any reference images and your artist will draw something made just for you, never traced off a flash sheet.
