The Manildra (@manildra ) water tank art was painted by Jimmy Dvate and was assisted by Justin in July 2022, along with the water tank and a mural was completed on the adjacent wall on the side of the Manildra flour Mill.
This water tank features Male and Female King Parrots with a banksia flower and seed pod. The Banksia can be found growing near the rest stop down the road and the parrots were nesting in the old red gum next to the Mandagery Creek bridge.
The artwork
#malekingparrot is based on a
photograph by @dallysbackyard and the artwork of #femalekingparrot is based on a photograph by Andrew Thomson.
