Welcoming art brightening up the side of a retail shop in Bondi Beach, Australia
-- Artist Notes --
It was a warm summers day and quite a long trek along Bondi Road heading to the beach although I was immediately refreshed when this building jumped out at me. I loved what I was seeing but found it challenging to make look good because the other buildings are so close. Initially I thought the parked cars didn't offer much ambience to the overall shot and was struggling to make something of it until I spotted the famous yet elusive street artist known as Lister driving his van down the main road in the distance.
I was unprepared and didn't think I had the right settings on my camera but fired off 3 shots anyway before the van disappeared behind the building. I checked the back of the camera and was pretty chuffed with the result as it was a polar opposite feeling to when I first arrived on the scene. I knew I had a winner and a big smile quickly followed. If you look closely you'll spot a few other subtleties that had to be changed in post production for security purposes but I think they boost the overall image to help give it a trendy Bondi Bohemian feel to it.
