A NEW mural is being spread across the back of the Newport Hotel by returned street artist Brolga.

Brolga, who cut his teeth on the buildings of Freo, has been living in New York for the past couple of years, earning prominence after his mural of Muhammad Ali was co-opted by mourners in the wake of the boxer’s death.

His latest mural has a Freo focus, featuring the dingo from Dingo Flour tucked in among a patchwork of primary-coloured palm trees and sunbeams.

Local artists Timothy. S, Art Byrow, and Jeremy Cross are working with Brolga to finish the two-storey mural on Paddy Troy mall.
