Happy Straya Day

In honour of straya day I have a collection of some of the more interesting bits and pieces I have come across recently in this great southern land...


On a sports shed on the outskirts of Lismore someone just could not take it anymore... Nice drips.

One the other end of the handstyle spectrum comes a truly epic piece of airbrush signage, again in Lismore... Spin Cycle isn't do anything by halves... although it had the vibe about it that it may have gone out out business...



Now this is something. A crazy relic confiscated in the wild criminal past of Sydney town... Is it a knife gun or a gun knife? People at the pointy end of it were probably too busy filling their jocks to contemplate the finer points of firearm design. Police and Justice Museum is some gangster shit... literally.

Bunsen burner... yeah, in jokes. This wall was about an hour and a half worth of graff fun with the little lady last week. Mental note- no more coaching, she must not be allowed to get better at graff than me...

Finally, the Straya Day production down the coast. Part of a joinup with Bones, Gooz, Emz, Fetish Katze and more. Coordinated color combos, nicely spaced pieces, fresh theming, chumps need to take note. Look closely at chugging grog peeps in the background, we had life size reference the park, and the following day we did a pretty good reenactment around Surry Hills. Carn fuck yas....

A new place to rant.

Just getting the first post out of the way, more pics than text hopefully, here are a couple to get things rolling.

Bit of quick messing around in the 'Gong during the holidays, the 'Ice Magic' quote refers to the funky icecream and the funky wretched parklife next door to the spot...

Section of short lived production in Surry Hills, early 2009. Red Buff! Red buff! Red Buff! I mean, how often do you get the Hype Twins, end-to-end colour co-ordinated burners and red buff in Sydney??? Actually most of the visual barf in Syd these days is lucky to have any buff job under it at all, even then mostly just toy as fuck left over ceiling white they stole from the oldies shed... Rant!

Luckily I never use white buff! (It looked beiger than that in real life, I swear)... Good to see Swarm rocking a piece (Not shown), hopefully some more to come soon...
As close to a ridgy as a I get these days... 20-odd metres of signage for the circus to tidy up the wall for the friend of friend owners. Why? Why not? ...Jeez, that buff is lookin' mighty white on the screen too...
Hectic trains on my blog lad... Part of rail Historical display at central during the centenary of rail a while back, closest I have ever come to stealing a train... lately...
