I remember reading about the glue paste-up artists use on Drab‘s blog, and wonder if Rone’s recipe was not right on this occasion?…

The Night Cat mural on the wall of Young St continues to make slow progress. In mid March, only the outlines of the words ‘Fitzroy’ and ‘Everfresh’ had been made, but since then additions have been made each weekend, and each time I go past I check for updates.…

This is another wonderful work I have previously featured, but it deserves another post. This version is at the back of the Centre for Contemporary Photography on Kerr St near the Gorker gallery. There’s another on Gore St between Rose St and Leicester St near the Eleventh Hour theatre.…
