Marrickville, timber mill, mural
This mural is located on the wall of a timber mill along Marrickville Road, in the inner west suburb of Marrickville. "The River Settler" was created by street artist Fintan Magee as a site specific work, referencing the wild colonial heritage of Australia's original timber industry. Rallis Timber is one of Australia's oldest and most significant timber mills and this artwork is a homage to the wild outback heritage and lifestyle.
Fantastic find Jim. He's such a talented artist, we have several huge scale works here in Perth.

ReplyDeleteWhat an unbelievable mural. Looks real instead of art.
ReplyDeleteHello Jim, First, thank you for not giving up on me with the linky problems. I have figured out the problem was ‘me.’ With some great advice from a person who knows about linky I think I’ve got this now.
ReplyDeleteThe Mural is so well done. The artist Magee has the same name as my brother-in-law in Kansas City, MO in the USA. Smile. This rider really looks like he is riding in water. Nice mural to share.
Happy Blue Monday.
