This painted rhino sculpture is part of the "Taronga Wild! Rhinos" public art exhibition located around the city to raise awareness and funds for Taronga Zoo’s Black Rhino breeding program and conservation projects. It is located on the edge of St Mary's Cathedral Square at Cook and Phillip Park, on the corner of William Street and College Street. "Sentient Being" was created by Mr & Mrs Brown, contemporary artists living in Central West, New South Wales.
Much imagination to paint a rhino so right?...
ReplyDeleteTomás.
Yes. I think this is my favourite one.
DeleteI love these painted critters, great shot of the Rhino!
ReplyDeleteOh yes ! That's wild for sure !!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how long it took the artist to paint this?
ReplyDeleteI'm loving all these Rhinos!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun and colorful!
ReplyDeleteI remember someone posting something similar, but they were horses. Of course, I can't remember where. Sigh.
Love this one. The colors and pattern are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteWe have had similar things over here with cows, eleiphants and Grommit
ReplyDeleteGreat rhino. I like the colors also it is a little pity for the real rhino's to be pictured as clowns. Have to think about that.
ReplyDeleteI am still enjoying your rhino postings. This guy is so colourful. He actual made me smile. Maybe was because he appears to have a smile on his face.
ReplyDeleteA colourful image.
ReplyDeleteLove this. Admire the artist.

ReplyDeletevery cool rhino art - and here in Richmond, VA - we have some "dogs" around the city that are similar to the artsy rhinos here…. how fun!
ReplyDeletei love these rhinos!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really good one!
ReplyDeleteWild and fascinating. Love them.
ReplyDeleteThat Rhino is indeed a work of art. It is a combination sculpture/zentangle. Very nicely captured too.
ReplyDeleteLove it! I'm bookmarking to show my granddaughter all the rhinos -- they have been her special animal since she was a toddler, and even sleeps with one named Noby!
ReplyDeleteI love this series. This particular rhino is pretty wild looking but has a kind face. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteSo eye-catching! You definitely can't miss it. :-)
ReplyDeleteI saw a few of these while in Sydney a few weeks ago.
