'Sunshine Paradise'

'Sunshine Paradise'

While down at the Mount attending the Street Prints Mauao festival we managed to fit in a day trip to a funeral an hour up from Gisborne & 2 private commission walls in between our large 2 story wall 'Rise of the guardians'. It was a busy time but we had the privilege of painting 'Sunshine Paradise' in Papamoa Beach & we loved the image so much we reproduced it as a fine art print with Artrite Screenprinting. The image is an internal wall painted in spray paint, it has then

We painted a private commission while down at the Street Prints Mauao event. Situated at the end of a private driveway, this mural was painted as a community wall for all to enjoy.

Street Prints Mauao

What a privilege to be part of the first Street Prints Mauao event in Mount Maunganui. We have spent the past 4 days painting a mural as a response to the Rena Disaster in 2011 where the container ship MV Rena ran aground off the shore of Tauranga. 2000 sea birds were killed & the food source & ecological systems of over 20,000 others were effected along with the environment & marine life.

The Block NZ - Villa Wars 2015

If you didn't see it all over your television screen, the Block NZ kitchen reveal was probably one of the most controversial episodes of the shows history so far. A total flop or an absoltute genius moment, we were approached by Hayden & Jamie to paint 'Be Bold' in a graffiti style for their kitchen splashback & it stirred the interior design hornets nest to say it nicely haha. Everyones' opinion will differ, the world will never agree on wether this was a good or bad idea -

Te Puke ō Tara

It is an important part of our art practise to acknowledge & bring honour to those who whakapapa to the area we are working in. We use our artistic talent to support the work & effort of the community so this mural down the newly revamped walkway is our interpretation & tautoko regarding their history. We have been working alongside the Otara Town Centre Management & CAB (Citizens Advice Bureau) to create a mural that educates those who walk past about the originas of the To
