Concrete Styles

Finally got this wall painted yesterday in between the rain.
The wall was so dodgy that I thought it would be an awesome idea to sketch up then render in the wall with concrete to make my piece smooth. Sounded like a cool idea but was an absolute bitch.
I ended up using just under 60kg of concrete on it and I reckon I could have used more but I was a little over it by the end. I got some areas to be a few inches off the wall so it kinda worked how I wanted.
This was the first time I’ve rendered a wall so hopefully it sticks!

It aint easy being green!

Just finished this wall in the Sth Melb Market. Already had some complaints from parents that their kids are scared so check it while it lasts. People need to harden up! Original illustration by Geoffrey Cramm.
