This series of walls was painted by jimmy dvate beside a green pathway leading to Melbourne’s Merri Creek. It focuses on threatened species in the area - the Sacred Kingfisher, Growling Grass Frog (Southern Bell Frog), Platypus, Grassland Copper Butterfly and Golden Sun Moth. Jimmy is one of Australia's pre-eminent wildlife painters, as these images testify @dvate @ jimmy_dvate, pronounced Deviate
I love street art. And I love sharing the images that artists paint on walls, whether it's here in Melbourne or in other visually exciting cities. I've been photographing art in Melbourne since 2005 and love being part of the street art community.
