Byron Bay | The Uncle Project
I wasn't sure if I should count this one but I figured a painted tank is a painted tank no matter the condition or quality. It's faded, it's flaked and its quite har…

Cumbalum | Emily Devers
Emily Devers For a tank painted in 2019 it's seen a great deal of degradation. The sun was not in my favor for this tank and photos were taken through cyclone fencing so quite…

Casino | The Brightsiders & Steve Falco
The Brightsiders & Steve Falco Nothing is harder that trying to take a photo of a raised object from well below it's base. This little water tower really needs a drone f…

Rappville | Nitsua
Nitsua To my delight the Rappville Public School hosted two small water tanks painted by the very talented Nitsua. These tanks are inside the school boundary line and the fence …

Junction Hill | Kade Valja & Stuart Murphy
Kade Valja & Stuart Murphy After the monster day in Coffs Harbor I contemplated skipping this painted water tank in favor of finishing up early and having a well deserved rest…

Lanitza | Unknown
Unknown Artist I've somehow mapped all the way to the 11th, which completes my Northern Roadtrip to the boarder of NSW / Queensland, without making a post. It's pretty slo…

Woolgoolga | Lee Holmes
Lee Holmes Painted in 2011 this is possibly one of the oldest painted water towers I've ever visited with the exception of Tasmania's George Town tower.  Lee Homes pays ho…

Coffs Harbour | The BIG Banana
The BIG Banana Australia's most iconic BIG Thing but definitely not the first. The BIG Banana is roughly the fourth Australian BIG Thing if you consider the Luna Park Face (…

Nambucca Heads | Ian Moule
Ian Moule I realize this is probably something a lot of people will skip when it comes to Silo Art but I really wanted to include it. It's not a huge piece! It's tucked aw…

Crescent Head | Unknown
Unknown Artist There's no tag on this one and not much information on it. It's likely a community project or, as it's a very touristy town, painted by some visiting to…

Crescent Head | Milton Budge
Milton Budge For anyone who hasn't been to Crescent Heads' before it's an extremely touristy area. The whole place felt like chaos. Parking was difficult to find and f…

Port Macquarie | SIGH
SIGH Port Macquarie was a fairly decent place for art. I had 45 locations for the town itself and had I put more time and effort into research I'm confident I would have found…

Laurieton | Max Scott
Max Scott I couldn't find a contactable weblink for Mr Scott though he is a local to the area of Port Macquarie.  This Public artwork is a 2004 instillation and is very much s…

Taree | The Big Oyster
BIG Oyster I didn't think it was possible to find an artist more rad than Dr Favian Delari but I stand corrected. You may not have heard of the Mokany brothers, Attila and Lou…

Taree | BIG Abacus
BIG Abacus I don't know why this particular sculpture never excited me but upon rocking up to it's location I was immediately enthralled and didn't care that the local…

Beresfield | Daniel van de Wiel
Daniel Van De Wiel Daniel from 'It Stands Out' was a tough one to name. The tag was partially damaged with a brick and therefore a few letters missing. We got there though…

Newcastle | Dan Bianco
Dan Bianco Newcastle has a war chest full of Public Art. I teamed up with another adventurer to explore this area and every time we left we'd find a dozen more artworks. This …

Warners Bay | Alex Seton
Alex Seton Another favorite artist of mine; Alex Seton.  If you ventured to the Warners Bay Foreshore Reserve and didn't expect to find a lifelike figure sitting near the wate…

Boolaroo | David Ball
David Ball I first came across work by David Ball visiting the BIG Corkscrew in Berrima, NSW. It was a private commission for a winery and another artist thankfully supplied the …

Pokolbin | BIG Wine Bottle
BIG Wine Bottle I just want to point out that despite this thing being an absolute beast it was surprisingly hard to find. I walked through this tourist trap about three times and…
