TOP END TOUR 2011

During October and November of 2011 I will be travelling throughout Australia's Northern Territory doing a few workshops with community centres and schools. I will be working with Angurugu School on Groote Eylandt, Yirrkala Art Centre in East Arnhem Land and Barkly Arts Centre in Tennant Creek.

Here are a few shots of hanging out with the students at Angurugu, sharing some stencil skills and gearing them up to paint a mural in their school.

ADELAIDE CITY COUNCIL MURAL COMMISSION

Officially the largest thing I have tried to paint.
The Adelaide City Council has recently commissioned a number of murals around the CBD.
This new push from the Council is sure to change the nature of street in Adelaide.

Here are a few quick snaps.

TRAM

My mate Simon and I were invited by a beer company to make an ad for them.
It's been printed really big and slapped on a tram that's running in Melbourne and a bus in Sydney. We had fun - it was a great opportunity to experiment with something of this scale. Here's a little trailer...

MITCHAM GIRLS HIGH MURAL

Over the last term myself and Billie Thomson have been working with a couple of Year 8 and 9 classes from Mitcham Girls High in Adelaide. We have been teaching them stencil techniques and producing material to contribute to a large mural on the outside of the school. The project has been made possible with the support of Carclew, SAYAB (through Arts SA) and DECS.
