Back in Sheffield to check on the progress of the mural competition
Hide & Seek
The imagination wild & free. A child's mind creates the freedom which is unrestrained. Searching for the unexpected, creating anticipation of surprise in the secret location. It is in the heart of the child that wilderness is found
Poetic Stanza
By interlacing the imagery of this poetic stanza with my signature thematic concerns of exotic surrealism & the boundless potential for beauty in utopian landscapes, I have created an artwork that seeks to depict, in vivid dream-like technicolour, the breathless exhilaration & depth of passion that comes with unbridled freedom
Bonnie & Clyde
Leanne's idea & vision - John's attempt at painting her thoughts. Our painting depicts the spiritual link between women & cats. A Tasmanian convict woman breaks free, her cat awaits, both just a whisker away from the wild, both about to do a certain amount of unescorted roaming, while in their eyes, magic resides
The person painting the mural here, was disqualified for not using the paints supplied
(he had been a contestant 4 times,so knew the rules !!!)
This mural has been done by all the artists
The Dream
We dream of good, but because of the human condition we want what we want. Unrestrained freedom has no boundaries. The heart can be good or evil, choose carefully.
The dream could become a nightmare
The Other Side
The aim of this mural is to give viewers the opportunity to step through a demolished, urban wall & discover nature's wide open spaces on the "Other Side".
Instantly the metropolitan zone is replaced with a beautiful "wild & free" beach.
Enjoy your exploration !
No Boundaries
This mural was inspired by children's play. Children are so naturally curious & imaginative that it feels as though their worlds have no boundaries ... like sitting on a swing & pretending to fly ..
wild & free
Still Free
There is more out there than we know about .. but that is why they are still free.
If we knew about them they would probably be in a giant
"Goldfish Bowl" somewhere (Their secret is safe with us)
Searching the Heart
Nature itself is "freedom unrestrained".
Reaching into your heart to see the wonderfull freedom of nature, no matter how miniscule, is uplifting the soul
