It was great to connect with St Ignatius Toowong and complete a mural in conjunction with the schools 120 year celebrations. The design incorporates the old and the new with the school steeped in history and now nestled amongst the modern cityscape.
It was great to back at the hyperdome. This time I whipped up a mural for the new Frankies Place Italian restaurant. Thanks to Shopfit Co. for making the project happen, Leda Signs and Jet Printz for the support.
It was great to contribute to the upcoming 150 year celebrations at Daisy Hill State School. Formally known as Slacks Creek State School, the design reflects the schools mascot “Daisy” the koala and some of the uniforms over the schools history. The design also references the eucalypt tree planting program which is unique to Daisy Hill State School a story which can also be used as a learning tool. Keep an eye out for the celebrations later this month.
I kept busy during school holidays with a mural at Hilder Road State School. The brief entailed a design that reflects the habitants of Fish Creek which runs through the school grounds. Recent regeneration work and plantings have made this a special place to learn and relax and it was fantastic to spot the animals I was painting nearby.
Returning to Brisbane this week I painted a 25m long mural for Wellington Park Private Care at the Wellington Point facility. The artwork transformed a backyard area for the dementia residents. Watch this space as there is another artwork planned at this site to be applied soon.
I recently commenced a games room floor mural just south of Brisbane. Im really satisfied how the Trompe Loeil concept works in this space. Theres a few finishing touches and a feature wall to be completed once the furniture is in place.
Mr. Squiggle and his motley crew from the moon made a huge impact on Sauce during the folly of his youth. In fact, I think Mr Squiggle and his friends inspired a whole generation of art lovers.
I can still remember watching in awe and wonderment as Mr. Squiggle created a masterpiece from a few lines provided by a lucky viewer.
It blew my five year old mind when he did the artwork upside down. I mean, can you imagine drawing with a pencil as your nose AND creating something recognisable AND doing it UPSIDE-DOWN!? Crazy!
In the current political climate, it is important to pay tribute and recognise the impact the ABC programming has on our lives and give thanks for the ABC’s contribution to leaning, education and the arts. #saveourabc
