Art and the Community..



What better way to brighten up a dull winter day than to come across a brand new just finished mural by Melski McVee! This wonderful celebration of colour depicting the native flora and fauna in the surrounding area and commissioned by Belmont Forum is 7mt high and over 25mt wide. The artist, along with many members of the community who came along to help, have created a mural that is not only relevant but incroyably fabulous to behold! Happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe.. P.s. a singing honey-eater above, I think, and a red tailed black cockatoo below..💛
