A beautiful mural now adorns Addison St in Shellharbour Village, a wonderful addition to the seaside setting as part of a Mural Festival held in conjunction with Australia Day.
The mural in Shellharbour Village was painted by Brisbane-based artist Gus Eagleton. There were a total of five murals painted around Shellharbour as part of the festival.
You can find the other four here:
- Kane 'Trait' Horspool - IMB Bank, McKeon Lane carpark, Warilla
- Krimsone & Scott Nagy - Warilla Medical Centre, McKeon Lane carpark, Warilla
- Claire Foxton - Bendigo Bank, Oak Flats
- David Cragg - Shellharbour City Stadium
Shellharbour Mayor Marianne Saliba said the mural festival was a unique opportunity for the community to come together, reflect and celebrate.
"The artists painting on the day have developed designs with the aim to enhance connection to place, as well as create a sense of pride and joy. They feature vibrant colours and are inspired by the array of flora and fauna local to the Shellharbour area," Cr Saliba said.
