Aboriginal Street Art - Jason Russell

I am posting early today because I have a busy afternoon and we are out for dinner with friends this evening.

I have been taking photos of the artworks by local Aboriginal artist and Worimi man Jason Russell over the last few weeks and today I put them together in a collage.

The top artwork is in a car park in Nelson Bay and even though this was taken early in the morning I still couldn't capture it without any cars in the scene.

The bottom left and centre artworks are in our local Tourist Information Centre in Nelson Bay and the bottom right artwork is in our community centre and library building in Salamander Bay.

All the artworks were commissioned, and I just love all of them.

I fell in love with aboriginal art many years ago… I love the story in each painting, and vibrancy of colours.
Lovely to see

Fav. Beautiful collage of gorgeous street artworks. I like the vibrant colours used . Pity the two cars were there when you took the shot but they could well show the difference between today and then.

I didn;'t mind the cars being in the top photo because I think it gave the street art a sense of scale.

Sorry I am a bit absent at the moment, we were out for dinner last night with friends and this morning I have caught up on the ironing, ugh.. Will check out 365 later today.

Fascinating Aboriginal art! I remember seeing some wonderful displays when I visited Australia in 2009. Shame you couldn't have found another red car to put in over the gap at the top left of the image!!
