Monday Mural - Wildflowers

Last Sunday on our return from Kings Park and our way way to go and eat a waffle, we drove through the suburb of South Perth just across the city on the other side of the Swan River.

Driving down towards the river on Mends Street I spotted a mural in a lane leading to a car park (16-20 Mends st).
Painted by Perth artist Joanna Brown, of Laeline Design, the mural was unveiled on the 10th August this year, as part of the "Connect South Perth" project, and depicts native flowers and succulents found in the area, like the kangaroo paw and the wattle, which are the State and the National floral emblem respectively.
The "Garden Suburb" theme encompasses both her murals in South Perth, 

If you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme is for you; just follow

Be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters.  Looking forward to your 
mural finds posted this week.

Thanks, Sami. 





You can also see the Numbatwhich Grace showed on her blog recently, installed at the South Perth jetty, which is part of the same project to upgrade the South Perth foreshore.

  3. I don't believe the colors would have shown up so bright and colorfully had the wall not been painted black to begin with. It is certainly lovely!

    1. I actually spotted it on the way down to the river and told my husband we had to come back the same way so I could take photos :) My husband doesn't spot murals the way I do, lol.
