More on Brad Blaze

Brad Blaze is hired by companies around the world not just for his talents, but his ability to put together entertaining shows and innovative presentations.

It's not just about painting to music. It's Brad's ability to connect with his audience and his showmanship that have brought events to life.

EMG booked Brad for the conference opener. Delegates were left in awe as paintings were made in minutes. Whether he is painting an iconic person, a CEO or celebrity, or a product, he keeps the audience guessing as to who or what he is painting, only revealing the subject with a few carefully placed brushstrokes or a spin of the canvas in the final breathtaking moments.

Using his background as a magician, Brad has a special technique where a 'blaze' of fire can reveal a corporate logo, slogan on the canvas. It's the perfect way to thank a sponsor, leave a lasting message or to advertise a product.

Brad's artwork serves as a lasting memory to the event. His artwork is hung in corporate offices, given to sponsors or they can be auctioned for charity.

More on Li Cunxin

Li Cunxin (pronounced "Lee Schwin Sing") is a remarkable man borne of a remarkable story. He has published a remarkable book about his extraordinary life. In his runaway best selling autobiography, Mao's Last Dancer, Li recounts his determination, perseverance, vision, courage and hard work, and in particular, the sacred family values and integrity that he learned in poverty-stricken China, which has driven him to become one of the best dancers in the world.

Inspiration and motivation are rare things in life, but they are so essential to achieve excellence in life. EMG's booking of Li Cunxin to close the conference week was a highlight of the program.
