Currimundi - Gothic Parade

Local artist, Zartisha Davis, will be painting a beautiful First Nation's artwork on this drab roadside cabinet in June/July. We cannot wait to see her painting come to life on this busy road near Currimundi Lake.

Tewantin - Memorial Ave

Artist Fiona Groom is celebrating the critically endangered Curlew Sandpiper (Calidris ferruginea) - a resident of Noosa, yet elusive all the same. Found in local wetlands and estuaries, these remarkable birds have been affected by habitat loss and degradation. Through this mural, located near the Noosa River and Lake Doonella, Fiona hopes to raise awareness and honour this special species.

Fiona's artistic style often incorporates a touch of humour, creating memorable works that spark curiosity and conversation. For this project, she has developed a bold, colourful design that draws attention while remaining simple and easy to interpret. Repeated patterns create a sense of rhythm and movement across the boxes, bringing energy and life to the artwork.

"I’ve always been in awe of nature - the intricate patterns, the personalities of animals and the raw beauty of the wild. For me, painting animals is more than just a creative pursuit; it’s a way to connect with the world around me on a deeper level.”

Jubilee Drive - Palmwoods

Artist Tia Carrigan was inspired by the unique markings of two native species, the Green catbird (Ailuroedus crassirostris) and the Kurrajong (Brachychiton populneus) flower. This mural celebrates the remarkable colours and patterns naturally occurring in our local flora and fauna. Drawing on the palette of both species, the work incorporates the striking colours in a busy, almost camouflaged design, mimicking the secretive nature of this unique bird of the bower bird family. It’s distinctive call, which sounds like a cat meowing, gives this vivid green bird its name and is a regular visitor in local gardens and bushland.

Tia is a visual and public artist who uses the power of colour, play and awe to engage people to create moments of presence, joy and connectivity. Accessible art, nature, education and mental health are fundamental elements she draws on to create memorable community experiences and contributions.

Kawana - Nicklin Way

Artist Kate Vox will transform this roadside cabinet in July. When she arrived onsite and looked at the area she asked herself 'What is special about this space?' There was a busy road, an aged care facility, a school nearby and the social mecca of Kawana Shoppingworld. Plus footpaths, buses, bicycles and trees.... Then she looked up! And had a bit of a laugh. The birds!

Usually Kate will leave out the power lines in her art but the birds don't mind them! They seem to be quite the social spot - somewhere to stop and have a chat about their day! Kate picked all her favourite local suspects; the cheeky loved-up Lorikeets, awkward Crested Pigeons (who seem to forget they can fly out of harms way), that one menacing Magpie you need to keep an eye on, scavenging Ibis, and her favourite....the cheerful Willy Wagtail reminding us all to enjoy our day!

Kate also floated in some maple leaves - a cheeky nod from the artist who hails from Mapleton, sharing a little piece of her art studio in the hinterland with everyone down on the coast.
