It was awesome to work with the youth in Blackwater to create this mural. There were numerous agencies involved and working alongside Anglicare CQ, Youth Justice, Disability services and PCYC made for a very successful partnership project both with great outcomes for the young people and the agencies requirements. We even made the local paper!
This interior mural for the Dukes team at Inala PCYC was a little out of my comfort zone. I used brushes for the majority of the work and in the middle of the three day project, we threw 20+ young people into the mix, but somehow it worked. It was a challenge to keep the chaos organised as the young people were enthusiastic about applying paint to the wall, however, this was about letting the young people have some ownership over their area.
