Graffiti, Inc. was founded in 1985 by Chris Trisnan. Originally from Blackpool, England, Chris is a classically trained sign painter. When he was a teenager, he went to Technical College to study Art specializing in airbrush. He came to America in 1982 and served an apprenticeship at another sign company before setting up his own sign company in Costa Mesa. His success out grew the location in Costa Mesa and so Graffiti, Inc. moved to our bigger and better location in Irvine in 2003.
