Our Story

CB Art is an independent creative venture built on a deep love for music, art, and culture. Specialising in hand-painted watercolour portraits, the artwork primarily pays tribute to iconic music artists from the 1970s and 1980s - the soul legends who shaped a generation. Alongside these nostalgic pieces, the collection also includes striking African-inspired designs, bringing a rich, cultural vibrancy to the range.


Hand-painted artwork

Over time, CB Art has grown to offer more than just original paintings. You'll now find carefully curated printed products such as T-shirts, mugs, tote bags, and prints — each crafted with a focus on quality and style. A trusted printing partner based in the North ensures that every product meets our high standards before reaching our customers.


Mugs containing the art

Our work is primarily showcased and sold at soul music events and weekenders across the country, where we've built a strong and loyal customer base — especially among those aged 45 and older who connect deeply with the music and style of the era. We also advertise through Facebook and host occasional pop-up shops, allowing us to engage with an even broader audience. Excitingly, we plan to take part in the Spitalfields Art Market each month, expanding our reach even further.
