Urban Jungle by Neil in Gisborne
Urban Jungle
This was a project I took on voluntarily when we got stuck in Nepal during the worldwide covid lockdowns. The owners of this place were keen to bring brightness and nature into their inner city place. This was painted by hand on a concrete wall.
Meet the Artist
Gisborne, New ZealandHello!
I'm Neil, I grew up in the Philippines and was that guy who was always drawing in class and was known at school and uni for being an artist. I dreamed of going to fine art school but couldn't afford to so went on to study hotel and restaurant management. In my late 20's I got back into art and started doing murals at hostels, guesthouses and cafes on the island I was living on. That was 3 years ago. Since then I've worked on numerous projects in the Philippines, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal and in New Zealand. I moved to New Zealand 1 year ago and am excited to continue painting here and bringing more colour to peoples lives. I've just finished my first mural here in Gisborne and am currently working on 2 more, will yours be next?
