Hayden Dewar

<div>Hayden Dewar's walls are always a fantasy delight. This one, painted on the wall of a music shop has it all - a fairytale character with long red hair, playing a guitar whilst being watched by an owl against a full moon. Below this scene , the girl's hair flows through the eye sockets of a skull while another guitar is being claimed by the jungle.&nbsp;<br>@hayden_dewar_artist</div>

Guido van Helten

<div>The portrait of profoundly deaf contemporary dancer Ana Seymour was painted by Guido van Helten on a seven storey building at Melbourne Polytechnic in January 2017.Â&nbsp; The artist, who bases himself in Brisbane but spends much of his time travelling and painting, creates site specific murals that reflect the human stories of the area. This mural is typical of his sensitive monochromatic artwork and reflects the polytechnicâ€™s links to the deaf community via its Auslan diploma course and the presence of deafConnectED. Van Helten says that the image "is an interpretation of modern society and its influence on architecture."</div>

Nick Hinder

<div>This work is by Nick Hinder and is concerned with the strength and regeneration of the bush after being desecrated by natural disasters such as bushfires, an ever prevalent threat in Australia.&nbsp;</div>

Adnate

<div>This enormous painting is a portrait of 11 month old Matari, an aboriginal child of the Muthi Muthi and Nukunu people. It can be found on the wall of the Blak Dot Gallery in Brunswick, and Indigenous art space. He is represented wearing a traditional kangaroo head band and ceremonial face paint.</div>

Matari

Julian Clavijo

<div>Julian Clavijo (@juliancla) is equally skilled when working on a canvas or a wall. This work was painted on one of Melbourne's iconic bathing boxes, and shows a little girl balancing on the back of a weedy seadragon. You will find it on the beach if you walk north from the Ricketts Point Cafe. Enjoy a swim while you're visiting, or even better - a swim and a cake/coffee deal</div>

N2O_Jo

<div>This delightful pasteup lives in one of Melbourne's green laneways. Jo (@n2o_jo) has created a lifesized stencilled image of her daughter, nestled among a creeper, looking with a magnifying glass at the life on the ground. It can be found in McLean Alley, behind Little Lonsdale St</div>

Jazmishap

<div>“Tokyo ghost stories of a geisha told on a cold windy night with a warm sake” – this is the artist’s label for this mythical character. Painted by Jazmishap as part of The City of Melbourne’s Flash Forward Project, created during our second COVID winter.<br><br></div>

Pete Cto

<div>Pete Seaton's (aka @ctoart) walls are an exploration of glitches in space and time. This wall references 'The Matrix'.<br><br>Quoting from his website: "Peter's work is a pursuit to expose the intangible aspects of the human condition. Ideas that we all innately and inherently apart of a divine intelligence which permeates all thing are explored using the human form and geometry."</div>

Character Vibrations

<div>This monochromatic face is typical of Rone's sensitive portraits of women.<br>It is part of the long wall known as Faces of Fitzroy and was painted in 2016</div>

Faces of Fitzroy

Stormie Mills

<div>Stormie Mills is based in Perth but frequently visits Melbourne (and international locations) His poignant characters are always painted in black and white, although here the astronaut has touches of ochre highlighting his features. As Stormie says, Black is for dirt, White is the removal of dirt, Grey is for the city and Silver is for dreams.</div>

@luckylucks

<div>@luckylucks painted three huge white rabbits on a wall of the carpark in Artists Lane. They are a wonderful mix of colours and seemingly collaged elements. The ears of the rabbit on the right were painted over the windows of the room behind. When these photographs were taken, withing days of the paintings being completed, the users of the room had removed sections of the ears to allow light to enter. It just goes to prove that you have to be quick with the camera!</div>

Senekt

<div>Japanese artist Senekt lived in Melbourne for an extended period and left behind several pieces including this one on a factory wall in Abbotsford. You will also find several examples of shutter art in this area.&nbsp;</div>

Mayonnaise

<div>Internationally renowned artist Rone started leaving his mark on Melbourne’s streets and laneways in 2004. He is known for his haunting images of women’s faces - his female muse is strong and yet fragile. Rone’s mastery of tone is visible in this golden collaboration with fellow artist and calligrapher Mayonnaize in Brunswick.</div><div><br><br></div>

bronik

<div>Painted by Veronica @bronikart in St Kilda in February 2021, in between Melbourne's multiple covid lockdowns, this beauty is a very happy addition to the back streets of St Kilda</div>

'Run Time Error'

<div>Portrait of a Tibetan woman living in exile. Adnate met and photographed her in 2015. The artist is well-known for his sensitive portraits of Indigenous people from around the globe<br>This is one of the seven portraits that make up Faces of Fitzroy, also known as Fry's Wall.</div>

Damon Knight @nomad2727

<div>A portrait with a twist of Art Nouveau – all that flowing red hair. It’s the work of Damon Knight aka @nomad2727<br><br></div>

sofles

<div>This wall is host to a changing gallery. This example, painted in late 2016, is by Sofles and shows his signature style. His graff background can be guessed from the patterned work in the background. If this work has gone when you visit, there will be something else in its place. Footnote - it HAS gone but the current replacement by Loretta Lizzio is gorgeous! oops - that's gone now, too</div>

<div>In this painting Vexta uses her distinctive brightly coloured shards behind the figure of the girl. This is the back wall of the St Kilda Police Station and can be seen on the far wall of the car park, entered from Camden St off Carlisle St.</div>

Maha

<div>This portrait by Maha is typical of his layered images</div>

Starlet

<div>This work by Matt Adnate is in the centre of Melbourne but in a "discreet" location, passed by a steady stream of busy traffic. Featuring those signature mysterious eyes.&nbsp;<br>It is a mystery how it has been defaced in this secure position, but it has been.</div>

Jason Parker

<div>This multi-storey mural was painted by Jason Parker for Frankston’s 2021 Big Picture Fest. Jason was assisted by Connor McLennan &amp; Jack Rowland.&nbsp;<br>You can view this mural from the ground in Plaza Lane (next to General Public) or from the ramp up to General Public’s rooftop car park.&nbsp;</div>

BeFreeArt

<div>Beautiful whimsical work by local artist appropriately painted on the facade of a child care centre. Be Free (@befreeart) usually works with pasteups but here he has painted two girls in rain gear on a long wall as if to share a narrative. We Melburnians have been watching this pair growing over the years, and we here we see them working together to water a patch of sunflowers.</div>

Phibs

<div>Happy snappy bird by the master of pattern, Phibs; painted on the side wall of the Friends of the Earth café in Smith St Collingwood.<br><br>It remains but has somewhat altered</div>

<div>The upside down world on this corner house is the magical work of Mike Makatron, Chuck Mayfield and Tayla Broekman. There is a salamander, an astronaut, an elf and a human/scarab hybrid. Painted on Wurundjeri Land of the Kulan nation</div>

Reka

<div>Reka was a member of Melbourne's Everfresh crew early in his career. Now based in Berlin, he visited his hometown in early 2017 and painted a number of walls, including this enormous pair of native birds on buildings at Melbourne Polytechnic. The rosella in a flowering gum and the kookaburra surrounded by gum nuts were chosen to complement their context.&nbsp;</div>

Native Birds

Smug

<div>An awesome portrait by the maestro of awesome portraits. Part of a new development in Melbourne's recently named Upper West Side. Curated by Juddy Roller</div>

Camscale

<div>This is an older piece by fine artist and muralist Cam Scale that has stood the test of time on the fence of some apartments in Brunswick.</div>

LucyLucy

<div>LucyLucy is a French artist who has made Melbourne her home. This is an early work but shows her signature love of pattern and fabrics.</div>

Ruskidd

<div>Ruskidd is a young Melbourne street artist who uses rich colour and dynamic rhythm to create his swirling patterns.</div>

<div>Pete Seaton: "The disconnection from our own humanity and over saturation in fear has us trapped in the Third dimension. Perhaps the difference between fear and love is a vertical ascension toward a higher dimension. A dimension closer to our essence." Pete breaks up his images by brightly coloured glitches that remind us of the fleeting nature of reality, both virtual and real.<br><br></div>

Trapped in the Third Dimension

<div>Gigi works in both 2D and 3D media. This sculptured eye is nestled inside a drainpipe, so look down low. Her characters are always quirky (and often hairy)</div>

<div>Lucy Lucy (@lucylucyone) is a French-Born artist, residing in Melbourne. Her beautifully feminine murals often explore diversity and boundaries of heritage.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>This mural was painted for the 2019 Frankston Big Picture Festival and can be found in Gallery Lane. &nbsp;</div>

Hypnagogia 

Dvate

<div>Dvate is a master when it comes to painting native fauna. To see this marsupial Sugar Glider in all his glory you will need to take the elevator to the third floor of the carpark adjacent to Rutledge Lane. There are entries in Flinders Lane and Flinders St</div>

<div>As part of a large project at the back of a storage facility in inner Melbourne, artist Cam Scale painted this portrait titled "Abraham" and this piece is part of a large project with work by other artists in the same location.</div>

Abraham

Anagard

<div>Anagard is an Indonesian stencil artist who visited Melbourne in late 2016. These two figures were stenciled onto opposing sides of the same corner. They are a whimsical addition to the Brunswick streetscape, although they mask a comment by the artist about consumerism. You will find them on the corner of Henry and Albert Streets.</div>

Andrew J Bourke

<div>This painting reflects the power of the creator spirit Bunjil, one of the most significant Dreamtime figures of the Wurundjeri people. Further along the same wall is a portrait of an indigenous man by Adnate. Andrew J Bourke also works under the name of @sirumvsvenom&nbsp;</div>

Shake-Ye

<div>These silos have been hung with canvases painted by Julian Clavijo (aka Pachi). It is the site of an new urban development and it is unsure how long these paintings will remain. They celebrate Multicultualism in Melbourne. Photos are best taken from the Punt Rd bridge, on the south side of the river.<br>Removed</div>

Nylex silos

David Lee Pereira

<div>These stunningly beautiful poppies are the work of David Lee Pereira @davidleepereira.art – they’re magnificent in size and detail. To see them you will need to ring the bell at 138 Lord St and ask if they will let you into the carpark. As the artist says "Painting these large scale florals are a reminder of the importance of respecting the natural environment which we share."<br><br></div>

Poppy mural

Heesco

<div>This wall is a tribute to local organisations who help newly arrived refugees and asylum seekers. The women represent Melbourne's migrant communities. Their arms are crossed over their chests, and the following text can be seen on the wall to the right: 'We cross our arms across our chests, Our duality within us. Many homes held within, While one heart beats.'<br>The artist, Heesco Khosnaran was born in Mongolia but i s based in Melbourne. The wall can be found in Rosamond St, around the corner from Chapel St.&nbsp;</div>

Creature Creature Studios

<div>Koi, peonies and a rabbit, combined with pattern and oriental detail, are elements of this exotic wall on the corner of Carlisle St, opposite the St Kilda Town Hall. Painted by Chanel Tang and Ambrose Rehorek of Creature Creature Studios @creaturecreaturestudios, it's a pleasure for the eye of the harried motorist waiting at the lights on busy Brighton Rd.&nbsp;</div>

Reka One

<div>This pair of enormous murals were painted on the Facade of Melbourne Polytechnic in early 2017 by Reka One, as part of the 'Paint the Polytechnic' Project. The artist began his street art career in Melbourne and returns every now and then from his new home in Europe to add to the city's streets. Here he has painted a kookaburra in a gum tree (reminding locals of the well-known song "Kookaburra sits in the Old Gum Tree") and a Rosella amid gum flowers. The murals are easily visible from High St, just around the corner from trendy Chapel St.<br>Curated by Juddy Roller</div>

Conrad Bizjak

Chehehe

<div>This tribute wall to Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat was painted to coincide with the <em>Keith Haring | Jean-Michel Basquiat: Crossing Lines exhibition</em> at the National Gallery of Victoria.&nbsp;<br>The two portraits were painted by Heesco (@heesco);&nbsp;<br>the background was painted by Conrad Bizjak (conrad_bizjak) LHS and Chehehe (@stayingcheative) RHS</div>

Haring and Basquiat

<div>Inspired by a man the artist met on Frankston beach, this mural was completed for the 2021 Big Picture Festival.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>According to Pete, it is a ‘speculative exploration into the possible architecture of reality, the inherent dualistic tendency. Cause and effect. Night &amp; day, life and death.’</div><div><br></div><div>Not only does this mural cover the wall, it also extends to the adjoining wall and ground below.&nbsp;</div>

Dreaming Beyond Duality 

<div>Three sides of this wall of a small power substation were painted by Adnate and Sofles. The wall facing Hoddle St has recently been defaced but the other two remain in good condition</div>

<div>Heesco is a Melbourne-based artist from Mongolia. This gorgeous woman can be found in Artists Lane, an alleyway behind groovy Chapel St and filled with street art</div>

Jimmy C

<div>This wall is related to Jimmy C (aka James Cochrane)'s&nbsp; ‘Atomic Contemplation’ series. Matter and the mind. Energy and movement. To the left sits Fin DAC's Wajahbaru. There is much other art to find in the laneways to the left</div>

Herakut

<div>"So she dreamt of running away with the monkeys. The most curious just tended to be the most courageous". This wall by Hera and Akut (Herakut) was painted on a two-story building on a sharp corner opposite the bowls club. It is a page of The Giant Storybook Project that the artists have been working on as they travel the world. The same characters can be seen in cities as far flung as Miami, Mannheim and Lexington.<br>This wall is fading but can still be enjoyed</div>

The Giant Storybook Project

<div>This massive wall from Brisbane born graffiti artist Sofles features a beautiful portrait of the artists own daughter, Harlow.<br>It is part of a long wall painted with portraits by many of Melbourne's best-loved artists.</div>

Cobre

<div>Argentinian artist Andres Petroselli, aka Cobre (@cobreart), visited Melbourne briefly in March 2020 and left two beautiful walls. Unfortunately he arrived early in the early days of the corona virus and had to leave as soon as he could get a flight out about the time of lockdown. He painted this wall in Collingwood. The other one was in a high turnover space in Hosier Lane. I've attached a photograph of it here for reference. It was already damaged prior to lockdown. The painted skin is extraordinary.</div>

Mike Eleven

<div>A commission from the City of Greater Dandenong, this artwork celebrates the achievements of a young Indian/Australian woman from the local community named Aishwarya.&nbsp;</div>

Aishwarya

<div>Dvate's Playtypus swims in a stream littered with rubbish. The Yarra Ranges Council funded the wall to encourage storm water drain awareness in an area where the playtpus still lives but is vulnerable to the effects of pollution.<br><br>The mural can be seen as you get off the train from the city to Belgrave (on the Belgrave line)&nbsp;</div>

<div>Another beautiful character "flying high and diving deep" in suburban Preston on the corner of a laneway.</div>

Christopher Hancock

<div>This wall is a collaboration between Christ Hancock (left) and Heesco (right). The styles of the two artists, while very different, blend beautifully.&nbsp;<br>* there is another wall by Conrad Bizjak in it's place now</div>

Cam Scale

<div>These four portraits, painted by Cam Scale, represent the diversity of the people of South Melbourne and are very at home in the confines of the market itself. Go for a wander and browse the market stalls while you look for them.</div>

<div>The exterior walls of this cafe were painted by Adnate, inspired by Renaissance paintings. the two hands are those of Adam and God the Father, painted on the Sistine Ceiling by Michelangelo</div>

<div>This wall by Matt @adnate is a portrait of Dr Andrew Peters, a lecturer in Indigenous Studies at Swinburne University. Behind him are symbols of the culture that is so important to our First Nations. Dr Peters has been closely involved in the university’s Reconciliation Action Plan and this tribute portrait was painted on a wall of a building on the university’s Hawthorn campus.<br>The details of the portrait reflect the artist's consummate skill with aerosol<br><br></div>

Dr Andrew Peters

AskewOne

<div>Adnate, Rone, AskewOne and Guido van Helten worked together over a couple of days to create a long mural, bound together by its black, white and grey palette and Mayonaize's calligraffiti.&nbsp;</div>

Collingwood Substation

Jimmy Dvate

<div>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<br>@dvate @ jimmy_dvate, pronounced Deviate<br><br></div>

<div>Jason Parker painted this portrait of his artist friend VEINS (IG @soleveins). In a nice twist he asked his friend to paint the motif on his own top. it is easily recognised as typical of his own work. These two artist have collaborated on a number of walls in Melbourne. While their styles are very different, they complement each other perfectly.</div>

Baby Guerrilla

<div>This six-storey high pasteup was created by local artist Baby Guerrilla on a wall at Victoria University's Footscray campus, at the cnr of Ballarat Rd and Tiernan St.&nbsp; The giant figure represents an African woman flying through the air (typical of the artist's work), carrying a briefcase and a book. Baby Guerrilla prefers to remain anonymous, in the belief that the work should speak for itself, without the mediation of a frame, a gallery or the identity of the artist.</div>

Marco Pennarcchia

<div>This wall makes me squint, but only in the best way possible! :) The 'out of focus' geisha graces the wall in Artists Lane behind My Miyagi - a well-known Japanese restaurant. Double vision creates twice the beauty</div>

<div>Smug is an ex-pat Aussie who paints his gorgeous characters around the globe. There's often a glint of mischief in the eyes of his models - this always helps to engage the viewer. the quality of his walls doesn't need to even be explained - they speak for themselves. This wall contains a self-portrait. Check out the 'marble' he is flicking towards the pirate cat. Are you sure it's a marble?&nbsp;</div>

<div>LucyLucy is a French artist who now calls Melbourne home. Her female characters, like these two, are always beautiful and elegant. She creates vibrant walls, with her wonderful palette and a dazzling array of patterns.<br>Look across the road to the Hello House. The word has been made by displacing bricks to create the letters.</div>

My Dog Sighs

<div>My Dog Sighs painted this signature wall during a visit to Melbourne in May 2019. The detail of the pupil of the eye references the silhouette of Luna Park, the local fun park, with its attendant palm trees.</div>

Kirpy

<div>You'll find this life-size stencil on a door down a laneway. It's so life-like that it makes me do a double-take when I see it. Keep walking down this laneway - there's more work by a range of artists in a short cul-de-sac a little further on.</div>

Bruce

ELLE

<div>ELLE is an artist based in new York. She has visited Melbourne a number of times, often painting with her friend Vexta.</div>

<div>Julian (aka Pachi) explains that this joyful mural is the manifestation of the freedom of happiness and how we (humans) are born naturally with it. Swallows are an ancient symbol of hope, prosperity, fortune and luck as well as loyalty and love.<br>You'll find it down the lane beside Alexander the Great restaurant, on the way to a carpark&nbsp;</div>

<div>Peter Seaton (@ctoart) has painted this face on two sides of the corner of a building, cleverly creating an optical illusion of completion and then using horizontal lines to break it up and to introduce colour.&nbsp;<br><br>He has also painted a wall on the opposite side of the building in Yarra St</div>
