Perth.. it's Dead Posh!



Rubbish bins all in a row don't seem quite so utilitarian when surrounded by colour, shapes and a bright orange tee shirt :) Still so much to see in Wolfe Lane. Dutch artist Amok Island found his way from Amsterdam to Perth to 'follow his love for everything tropical'.. see more of his fishy murals around the world here (excellent) including Dolphin Fish above. Meanwhile around the corner on the same building Melbourne artist Lucas Grogan was, in his favoured blue and white.. declaring the whole lane 'Dead Posh' :)


..and just when you least expect it.. a cheeky little ROA, excellent! I hope you had or are still having a wonderful weekend.. Monday for me, let's see what this week brings! Take care and stay safe...

  8. They are all terrific works and well captured. 'Dead posh' was a phrase I heard a few times in England.

  14. Never heard of the Dutchman, he gave himself a weird name, but his murals are ok, I think he had no space in Amsterdam anymore to paint on. In Perth you have a lot of huge walls with very nice murals, I like that last one.
