Those Sydneysiders amongst you will probably recognise this very large face at Darling Harbour.
I don't know how someone could paint such a large and impressive face at such scale.

I have not been into Darling Harbour for a while - at least not where I have seen this - I am now on a mission to hunt i down

I haven't been to Darling Harbour for a few years. Do you know the history of the painting?

Amazing street art

@annied its so big - pretty easy to find just along from the Holiday Inn
@365projectorgjenfurj I googled quickly and found an image but no info - sadly no idea
@colinbarber013 yes, its quite dramatic.

@pusspup thanks - I don't often wander that far down that end but I will make the effort next time I am in the city

I recognise this as being the art work of Adnate who did a huge mural called Ngatanwarr here in Warrnambool a couple of years ago! I think he started as a street artist in Melbourne. fav

[Diana]

It sure is magnificent!

@pusspup @365projectorgjenfurj @gilbertwood Absolutely brilliant. As some of you know I am a big fan of street art and Denise is right it is the work of Matt Adnate, he is a Melbourne based street artist. One of his works is in Newcastle as part of the Hit the Bricks festival a few years ago.

Here is a link to one of his works in Newcastle that I posted a few years ago. http://365project.org/onewing/topics/2014-01-31

So interesting to see this amazing image and then read about its background and artist. Well captured and shared!

An amazing piece of artwork. It must be a great attraction for the area.

@onewing thankyou Babs

[Kathy]

I have had a similar thought when viewing other large pieces of artwork/graffiti.

[Connie Little]

Wonderful capture of this amazing piece of art work.

[Rachel]

I agree, it takes such talent to be able to paint on this scale.

[Harbie]

Great mural!

One of the things I like about street art like this ... it 's not just great art, but such an achievement on such a huge scale. Lovely capture.
