Bunbury in regional Australia, is apparently home to the largest collection of street and public art. Quite impressive!

Monday Mural Meme goes lives at 12,01am Perth, Western Australian time.
Thanks, Sami.
Just outside Mojo's restaurant in Victoria Street (where we had lunch), this sea container had a wall painted by Tattoo artist Tim Howe - a woman in an aquatic setting, which was painted in November 2015.
The next mural in a laneway off Victoria Street next to Trafalgars Hotel, and across from Ian Mutch's Autumn leaves mural, the words Rebel, Rebel, were painted by Australian artist, typographer and illustrator Gemma O'Brien.
She does a lot of advertising commissions for big companies, and a number of her projects have been recognized by the New York The Type Directors Club, with awards of typographic excellence.
This last one also in the same laneway off Victoria Street, where Kyle Hughes-Odgers mural was painted, but behind a closed fence to which I presume was a bar.
I couldn't find who painted it.
And a very happy birthday to my Mom who celebrates her 82nd birthday today 10th February.
