Alyss Street – TANK ART

Two of our water tanks have had makeovers transforming them into larger than life pieces that are certainly a picture and a visit if you’re visiting our region.

In artist Joel Fergie’s words.

“The painting depicts a young local boy playing in the dust with his toy dinosaurs. We really wanted to bring that sense of wonder we all have as a kid. What a fun one to try and capture from concept to painting. A huge Thank you to all the locals who looked after us in our time in town. Thank you for the trust and appreciation of our vision. Thank you to Flinders Shire Council for organizing and putting us up (and putting up with us)”

The Hughenden Alyss Street Water Tower was completed in just 5 days in late June 2021.

The Mclaren st Water Tank art is an amazing capture of our region’s sunsets and our much loved recreational lake. Artist Travis Vinson aka DRAPL admitted to being in awe of the our sunsets which any visitor can attest to.

“Hughenden Watertower part 1 depicts the local views and the magnificent new lake in the heart of town. [Joel Fergie] @_thezookeeper and I packed a lot of colours onto this one to try and compete with the spectacular sunsets.”
