Today is the birthday of the Land Of Sunshine blog – the 8th year to the day of posting about Melbourne street art and graffiti and what better way to celebrate than to show the progress shots of this incredible mural by Lucy Lucy. For years I have loved the French street artist’s style and […]

As a documenter of street art and graffiti myself, there are some other photographers out there that I respect and admire – first and foremost Henry Chalfant and Martha Cooper for their amazing efforts in the 70’s and 80’s in New York, and then comes Rennie Ellis who was taking photos of graffiti he spotted in the lanes and […]

This is what happens when you throw two street artists on a killer wall and let them go nuts. Deams and Shida couldn’t be more opposite – one extremely strict using perfect straight lines, curves and geometry, the other more organic and fluid with bodies that weightlessly dance. I am pretty fortunate that I get […]

Sunshines Top 10 Melbourne Street Art & Graffiti – February 2017

Deams has been a favourite of mine for years, so much so that an epic work of his features on the cover of my book Street Art Now. As part of the legendary AWOL crew from Melbourne, he creates incredible geometric murals that I think fall under the category of graffuturism. I have known him to be a […]

ADNATE recently spent a few days painting the rear of a building in Fitzroy.  The three storey mural features the Dalai Lama whom he met in person last year in India. He was very moved after the meeting and wanted honoured to paint him. In his words “I believe the Dalai Lama needs as much […]

I met Adnate years ago as he was painting his very first mural on the side of a building in a back street in Fitzroy. We didn’t chat too much but it was the beginning of a relationship that has not only lasted but grown over the years. I have followed and documented his career – […]

Before Adnate started painting incredible realistic portraits all over the globe, he was a young graffiti writer in Melbourne following the works being created for Meeting Of Styles, a European graffiti festival that started in 2002. The event was recently held in Melbourne for the first time with over 200 artists painting around the city and in […]
