Man.De From the time I saw Creons wall 'Where the Wild Things Are' and the time it took us to safely pull the car over we passed this delightfully painted caravan and I fe…

Creon This image doesn't appear in the artists socials and while the paint looked fairly bright the wall was rather grubby. Creon painted a wall in Beverly Pl back in 2020 and…

Another drive through Katoomba means another visit to Beverly Place. There weren't many new murals but I'm glad I checked! I'm a little miffed with the mural above. It…

Birgette Hansen 2002 I've walked past this wall a few years previous and never paid it much mind. My public Art challenge has left me appreciating more and more these days and…

Vern Treweeke 2001 On my last visit I spotted this from the road and took a screen shot of Google Maps to add to my list to visit later.  It was the first stop on a 2 day road t…
