On a recent trip to Kalgoorlie I saw some fabulous murals of Australian Native Animals. Kalgoorlie has recently tried to brighten up the town with some wonderful murals. Although there are some who seem against this idea as I saw many that were defaced with graffiti and other damage. A great shame.
These bright and colourful murals decorate the walls of the local Coles in Kalgoorlie. I believe they were painted by local artists Em Anders and Jason Dimer.
Jason Dimer
Jason Dimer comes from Kalgoorlie in Western Australia and is the son of the late Mr Neil Dimer who was an important leader and artist from the Goldfields region. Presently Jason lives and works in Kalgoorlie and his paintings depict traditional Dreamtime stories that have been passed down to Jason from his tribe. These stories include the rainbow serpent and men’s stories. Jason also paints stories of his mother’s country – Source: Creative Native

These murals are amazing and the artists so talented. It’s terrible that some have been defaced but it sadly happens here too.
Thanks Marion ..I suppose it’s boredom
Fantastic murals Alison! Thanks for contributing to Monday Murals.
The link to your mural page was incorrect, I’ve entered it again, although when sizing the photo it became too small, but it leads to the right page in your blog. Thanks 🙂

Very interesting street art!
These works are beautiful. I love how gorgeous paintings really brighten up a utilitarian building.
I agree it makes such a difference to a drab town
Stunning art, Ali! The details are amazing! Thank you for getting up close for us!
Thanks for your comments Ju-Lyn 😊
Amazing art pieces. I just find the posing of the kangaroo funny. It seems like a person lying on its belly 😂😂😂
