Location: Taylors Lakes Linear Park - Chichester Drive, Taylors Lakes
This mural celebrates themes of connection, family, new beginnings and a shared love for animals and green spaces. At its heart are a mother duck and a mother black swan, each accompanied by three young, creating a visual balance that highlights both difference and harmony. The background features soft greens inspired by local foliage, along with tones drawn from the swan’s beak and the duck’s wing. A large white circle provides a sense of breathing space, while intertwining eucalyptus leaves wrap through the scene, symbolising unity and the close-knit spirit of the park and its community.
