Brad literally ‘Blaze’s’ across the stage to entertain and delight. His act is beyond compare – his engagement with our audience, his infectious enthusiasm and ultimately utterly brilliant paintings are hard to articulate or sufficiently praise with words – you really have to see his act to believe it. Brad was generous enough to donate his paintings to our charity auction – so in terms of ‘bang for your buck’ - Brad is brilliant value. He not only gave us a performance which inspired many of our attendees to send e-mails and call in praise of the evening in general – and Brad in particular – he is also such a genuine, down-to-earth gentlemen – he generously offered the audience the chance to not only engage in Q & A sessions – he also stayed on to pose for photos with individuals and his paintings by request. We would unequivocally recommend Brad Blaze for any event – it’s hard to imagine he could disappoint. Australian Security Medals Foundation
Awesome!! Brad was very well received and delivered a very entertaining session. He event offered to do some caricatures later that evening at our Gala Dinner as well, for which he had 30 people lining up to receive. Brad is very down to earth and was very pleasant to deal with, so the whole process was very easy IOOF Wealth Management
You have a wonderful talent. Malcolm Turnbull
I have to say Brad, you stole the show! You turned a standard charity event in to a night to remember. You will definitely be on speed dial (‘scuse the pun!) for future events. Heartkids
… a massive ‘Thank You’ for an awesome performance on Saturday night. All people were saying was “WOW”. Our clients are always dubious at the best of times to try something unseen or untested, but you certainly changed this client’s mind with your performance at our event. Your professionalism, willingness to work within the vision of the event, and your enthusiasm during the night was nothing short of wonderful. Leighton Holdings
Brad was a perfect break in our agenda – high energy, fun session that had everyone up clapping and laughing! A highlight of our conference program! And a great guy! Jetset Travelworld

Brad had the whole room gob-smacked with his performance. They were just amazed with his skill, and engaging a few from the audience was a real crowd-pleaser as well. They just loved it. The works also fetched decent sums in the auction for our fundraising. Iona College Foundation
