Chinchilla

Over some seriously hot days this summer I visited Charleys Creek Brewery to complete some more art. I worked some magic on the tap trailer, finished two of the ammenities blocks and also took on a stage backdrop. I thoroughly enjoyed getting back on the brushes and what better location than a shady spot by the creek in Chinchilla.

The stage mural was set to a reasonable undertaking especially to paint on the fly. I prefer to have a plan or concept to work from so after discussing a couple of approaches with the owners I sat down and sketched a rough draft on the spot…literally as the final wall panels were being installed! It’s a special thing to maintain balance between the challenge of commercial work (the ability to suit a brief) whilst playing to my strengths as a painter. Its also great to work with businesses who make things happen, no mucking around and meetings to decide the next meeting.
