After ten years of service the time came to retire the old IN-SYNC Youth Service sign at Cleveland and replace it with something fresh.
Mt Cotton State School sadly lost a valued teacher to cancer last year. Butterflies, gingham and purple are themed throughout a garden in memory of Teresa Peters (Jones).
The correlation between graffiti art and the natural environment may be difficult to grasp immediately as graffiti art is typically linked with the inner-urban city environment, however this creation could be seen as a parallel universe where the ultimate mystery bursts from the earth in one final glow. This landscape concept is easily recognised however the abstract element asks us to look further, to question reality and see what may or may not coexist.

Students attending a Get Set For Work program at EPIC Employment Service, Caboolture have been busy improving art skills. Recent workshops provided opportunity to complete stencil works on canvas and a fresh looking classroom mural.
Whilst bushwalking I discovered an interesting find. The “Bush Sauce” plant or Saucerusstylus a member of the native gumtreeusmaximus family combines a fern-like foliage with a hardwood bark texture growing to several metres in height. Evolving to suit climatic conditions this specimen displays masses of brightly coloured, bird attracting flowers in early summer and produces tasty berries for a nutritious bush sauce. This genuine species is often imitated by noxious weeds however sap-sucking, aphid infested posers are no match for the original.
Bayside Bulletin Articles 28th July & 11th August, 2011.
As someone who attended the Celebratory Luncheon I am a little confused as to why the articles content is so frog focused when the frog feature mural has been cropped from the photo used. The mural was however featured in a prior article “Picnic in park to aid cerebral palsy” 28th July without mention of the artist. This most recent article fails to mention the event was attended by Redland City Mayor Melva Hobson or Cerebral Palsy League CEO Angela Tillmanns nor does it touch on the great attendance, entertainment and days proceedings. The work of award winning mural artist Sauce has previously been misrepresented by the Bayside Bulletin (and continues to be misrepresented http://www.baysidebulletin.com.au/news/local/news/general/laming-promises-for-graffiti/1911832.aspx ) indicating a intentional bias is again displayed in this most recent article.
Wynnum High has benefited from recent re-vamping and many of the original buildings have taken on modern appearences. It was great to return to apply some colour to one of the few sites where the old red brick remained. The text “We’re Wynnum We’re Proud” and colour scheme of the mural derives from the schools expectations Positive, Respectful, On task, Unified and Determined. Stretching fifty five metres of the 1st level made it diffucult to get good photos so the mural is best viewed from a Citytrain.
