Untitled [Sugar Glider] is the first street art mural painted in Townsville by internationally acclaimed artist, ROA. This mural of a sugar glider is indicative of the artist’s practice of painting native fauna from around the globe using black and white aerosol and acrylic paint. ROA said, “I almost always paint the native or extinct animals from the area that I’m painting in... I painted a sugar glider because it’s an omnivore and it can glide with its membrane; I think they are amazing.”
My name is Shelley, I live in Sydney and my passions are travel, photography and street art. I love road tripping through rural Australia and discovering the many wonderful murals and sculptures that abound these days.
