There Are Some Strange Characters On The Bus by FatherMarker in Coburg

I was the lucky appointed artist to be selected for this Mornington Peninsula Shire EOI. Taking out 2/5 walls offered as part of the anti-graffiti campaign, I wanted to challenge myself with this surface and create a heavily detailed artwork that focused on both member of the local community as well as endemic fauna of Rosebud. The corrugate bus stop is situated in front of the Rosebud Library and show anthromorphic character sitting and waiting for the bus. Each character represents people of the local community that rely on the public transport system and tips the cap to local community groups and businesses in the area. All sides of the bus stop are painted showing 10 character across the entire structure. The 18m2 mural was painted with aerosol paint and also brushed with decantered aerosol paint to achieve the fine details of the characters.
