The Big Splash V.. Ocean Turbulence.



It's no secret that my favourite colour is blue, so 'Ocean Turbulence' by Robert Jenkins, looking like it's about to dive into the harbour at Elizabeth Quay is one of my favourite dolphins around the city. Created for the Big Splash together with Perth Children's Hospital Foundation to draw attention  to the mental health issues of children and young people. The little blue men, trademark of Robert Jenkins can be seen all over the city and suburbs and often right here :) I haven't forgotten the theme day subject 'tired', I just don't have anything.. hopefully tomorrow! Happy Thursday, take care and stay safe..
