Chinchilla

I stopped by Charleys Creek Brewery in Chinchilla to complete some more hand painted signage recently. The place is bustling with patrons searching for photo opportunities so I took care of some much needed signs and custom artworks. There’s also a bunch on new beers on tap and live music each weekend.

Muttaburra

After delays from cyclones and floods I finally made it back to Mutttaburra, Centre of Queensland. This time I installed a mural for the Dr Arratta Museum display. I began work on the panels in my studio over summer and had a challenging time due to the paint not drying in consistently moist weather on the coast. Completing the panels once installed onsite in outback Queensland to experience the issue of the paint drying before I could get it off the brush in super dry conditions! Despite delays and challenges i’m happy with how it turned out and compliments the space. If you’ve never been to the Centre of Queensland it’s a special place where dinosaurs once roamed, on the land on Iningai peoples and the rivers meet. There’s also plenty of cool fresh air and hot artesian bore water in winter and friendly locals all year round.

Leichhardt

It was great to return to Leichhardt State School in Ipswich this week. This time I completed a mural in the multipurpose centre working alongside the fabulous PBL (positive Behaviour Learning) team. It’s great to see students embrace the school mascot Leo the lion and offer positive feedback towards the new art.
