May 21, 2018/ cracked ink

Here's the finished sections of my wall for the latest PangeaSeed Foundation mural for Seawalls Australia in Cairns called "Get To Know' -
A 28 metre long wall ,my mural encapsulates multiple different ocean matters including over fishing, plastic pollution, deep sea oil drilling , rising sea levels and many more different facts / questions and solutions along side of my illustration, i really wanted to focus on showing how many different problems we are facing at the moment in our oceans which all adds up into one gigantic problem. The main task we have ahead is educating and changing humans attitudes towards all of these issues. If we can get that right there is hope for all creatures and life in the ocean and planet earth.

My name is Simon otherwise known as Cracked Ink, I’m an artist from the Uk, I’ve been painting for over 14 years, I studied graphic design at Uni, and quickly got involved with the right crowd. Painting and basically getting up to mischief, quickly became huge part of my everyday life. I like to think I have continued on this journey by continually pushing, evolving my style and trying to perfect the skills of painting and creating in many mediums, predominantly painting with aerosols. Myself and my work has evolved drastically in the 8 years I have lived in New Zealand. I have met many like-minded people who do what I do because we love it, this is my passion, and a big part of my life. My work is predominantly quirky, bold characters which portray an array of emotions, expressions and general attitude that I get from everyday observations.
