Caloundra Bambini

This week I spent four days in Caloundra, working on four different murals at Bambini ECD Caloundra. The walls were a specific part of the design of the childcare centre with each wall tying in a different theme which correlated with the activities provided by the facility. This concept allowed for the designs to be purpose built as opposed to an afterthought. Essence Property were great to work with and the staff were very encouraging. I was also able to check in with some of my older work in the neighborhood at Mooshka and I had an excellent dinner there. I had a lot of work to squeeze in over the past few days but I’m really happy with the outcome. I can’t wait to do some more purpose built walls in the future.

Birkdale State School

For the past week I have been working at Birkdale State School, where I have had the pleasure of painting murals on the undercover areas of the school. The principal was great to work with and allowed me create artworks which I am really happy with. There were two murals, one which was a beach theme and the other incorporated the school’s motto ‘Always Our Best’. Whilst painting, I was asked a myriad of questions from curious students and it was great to be received so well by the school. I am looking forward to visiting again soon.   

Serviceton South State School

Last week I spent five days at Serviceton South State School, where I painted four walls which were used to express a Celebration of Diversity and Culture. Each section has a different culture in relation to the theme and I had fun learning new ways to say ‘welcome’. This mural is on of many different creations I have had the pleasure of painting for the school. Looking foward to working there again in the future and munching more of the tasty sandwiches from the tuckshop. 

Burringbar Botanic Gardens Nursery

Recently I have been busy with some local work and I had the pleasure of painting a trailer for Burringbar Botanic Gardens Nursery. As a public art practicioner I really enjoy the notion of taking art to the people and  this moving canvas is the epitome of this. The trailer can be seen at markets and events all over the East Coast of Australia stocked with an array of native flora.

I have been kept busy developing a new logo to coincide with a recent name change. Burringbar Gardens Nursery are still helping you grow the best plants on earth.

52 On Vulture

Recently I have been creating a mural on Vulture Street, West End. The folks at Cowlishaw & Son have entrusted me to funk up the fashion warehouse walls of the third generation business. Their hospitality, an open approach to design, along with so many fabulous comments from pedestrians have all contributed to a very enjoyable experience. 

Memorial Garden

A memorial graden was created at Coolwynpin State School for a student who sadly passed away this year. A colourful tribute was created to compliment the garden with some of the student’s favourite things in mind.

Moreton Bay Boys' College

It was a great opportunity to carry out this mural on behalf of students at Moreton Bay Boys’ College. The Seniors of 2011 completed the school journey and gave a gift to the school that will last for many years to come.

Carole Park Cats

After completing several murals in 2004/05 it was great to return to Carole Park State School. Students have recently adopted the cat as a mascot. Caring, courageous and committed cats have many great attributes.

Woodcrest Junior College

Based on a students design this recent mural at Woodcrest Junior College reflects the schools values. It was great to brighten up the undercover play area and recieve fantastic comments from students, staff and parents. Based on this feedback I think we achieved the brief of making school values appealing to the target audience.

Serviceton South SS

I had a top time creating this lorikeet themed mural at Serviceton South State School.
