A big focus of his large-scale paintings as a mural artist is to help create a better public space through art. Placemaking has become an important aspect of his process. Taking into consideration the space and who uses it is important just as much as the visual look of the mural artwork.








Mural Project Management
As a mural project manager, I can manage all aspects of the mural project, including collaboration and curation of mural artists, property owners, and material acquisition.
You can view more of my street art on my website in the showcase section. You can also see my commercial illustration work as well. I specialised in illustration at the Canberra School of Art.
I have worked with several different clients ranging from schools to corporate government departments. Each mural I do is customised around the client’s needs though flavoured with my style of mural art.


I have also painted murals as part of art festivals around Australia, such as Un[contained] in Sydney and Surface Festival in Miami on the Gold Coast.

Mural Artist FAQs
Each mural job has to be priced per job. There are a number of factors to consider when pricing a mural, eg the cost of materials, the development of the design concept and other possible needs for equipment hire.
How long a mural lasts will depend upon the preparation of the wall, paints used, aerosol or acrylic house paints and then if the mural is located in full sun as opposed to being indoors away from the natural elements.
An initial design brief will help guide the outcome. With the right questions about the location and the people who use the space HAPPY DECAY will create a concept based on those answers and with further discussion with the client.
With each mural project, a timeframe will be included for how long it will take to paint. Some time factors will be the detail of the mural, the size and also if the wall is affected by the weather.
