Urban Bushlands

The City of Bayswater decided to wake up some walls. "Urban Bushlands" is located on the facade of four shops situated along Grande Promenade in Bedford, WA.

This vibrant mural enhances the space visually. However, most encouragingly, it's an invitation for people to talk about the need to preserve our magnificent wildlife. Within the mural you will see a kingfisher, a moaning frog, a boobook owl, a red-tailed black cockatoo and a New Holland honeyeater. And, of course, I’ve included a black swan – the emblem of Western Australia. All precious species of fauna that bring joy to many.

It is important to support the conservation of our urban bushland because native plants, birds and animals are vital to our ecosystem. The natural environment also benefits us emotionally as well as physically. “Urban Bushlands” has certainly added more LOVE and LIFE to the shops and services. However, it’s also here to remind us about the importance of protecting local wildlife and restoring their habitat.

Aisha's Art

Western Australia
Hi, my name is Aisha pronounced Aye-sha and I have been passionate about all things art and creativity since I could hold a pencil. I started painting professionally and selling my art in high school. From there, I ran my art business casually on the side of all of my endeavours, including an arts degree and a health degree. After my health degree, I worked as a social worker and combined my skills in art and therapy to deliver mental health wellbeing counselling and workshops. In 2022 and after many years of working in the mental health field, I decided to go full-time with my art business. I predominately paint bright and colourful large-scale paintings and murals and occasionally facilitate art workshops. I am extremely passionate about the power of art as a source of therapy. Whether you are involved in the artistic process or get the pleasure of witnessing the magic.
