Panel 2 of my 3 panel large scale mural I completed at K9 Zone, a local doggy day care in Bacchus Marsh. My clients wanted this 3m x 10.2m area completed by a local artist, as the artist they had hired to complete the other walls in the facility was no longer able to complete the final wall.
My clients wanted a fun, dog friendly scene based off of the local town landmark, The Avenue Of Honour, which is a string of trees planted along the main road in and out of town to commemorate the men of Bacchus Marsh who fought in WW2. They specifically wanted to include the walking track that circles the local lettuce farm just off the Avenue Of Honour, as it is a popular meeting place for locals and their pets. They also requested cartoon versions of their doggy clients to be added into the scene, which surprised and excited their human clients each week when they walked into a bit more of the mural being complete. I was lucky enough to include a caricature of my own dog in amongst the fun and mayhem in the scene.
This mural took a total of 6 months to complete, as I was painting in the afternoon after closing time for a few hours 5 nights a week, which accommodated both mine and my clients schedules.
Hey there! I'm a super-flat neon pop artist from Bacchus Marsh, but I’m mostly based in Melbourne, Naarm.
My work focuses on bringing a touch of neon-coloured nostalgia to childhood cartoons. I’m heavily inspired by cartoons, comics, video games, animated films and music.
I’m a traditional and digital artist, in my traditional work I work with acrylics on a wide range of surfaces including canvases, skateboards, wood cuts and just about anything else I can get my hands on.
Super-flat art, originally created Takashi Murakami, is heavily influenced by manga and anime, thereby the movement consists of flat, bold blocks of colour that are void from shadows and highlights. In my work I focus on creating a flat, almost matte look to my pieces, which have been mistaken for digital prints on more than one occasion.
So far in my short career I’ve been lucky enough to exhibit at art fairs such as The Other Art Fair in Sydney and The Inner West Art Fair in Melbourne. I’ve also exhibited in a heap of group shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Queensland, and in 2024 I had my Debut Solo Show at Off The Kerb Gallery in Collingwood.
