Tarns - Nikon Cameras Australia

1st July, 2014, By La Fleur

Last week Tarns, one of the Cold Krush in-house artists, completed a live painting gig for Nikon Cameras Australia as part of their promotional tour across Australia.

Tarns, representing the Adelaide leg of the tour, executed the task to complete six canvases over the course of the two day event.

He came up with some stunning peices which left Nikon's clients and the guys running the show in awe.. a big thanks to Ben Halcomb, one of the expert Nikon representatives, there's a cute time lapse video of Big T. painting a Nikon Camera.

I reckon he knocked it out the ball park but will let you be the judge, check out the video and pics below!

Stud Adult Book Store - Holden Hill

Tarns & NME

Our in-house Artists Tarns and NME had a rather interesting commission to do last week, 'Stud Adult Book Store' in Holden Hill.

Tarns tricked it up with his fancy script and NME did a funky retro looking character of a man in a suit and also a character of a girl.

Here are some photos of the guys work!

1st July, 2014, By La Fleur

Not only does 'A Mother's Milk' have coffee that is the bomb diggity here in Unley but they will soon have a new mural running down the side of their fabulous cafe!

CWR and Tarns gave it that cool blue abstract with birds in suits..this time the guys are working with warmer colours to get us through this cold winter and a vintage theme for the owners Stef and Christina who love vintage motor cycles.

Battling with the miserable weather Tarns has been working on this over the last two weeks and it's nearly finished, we will pray to the rain gods to hold off from the heavy downpour for just a few more days...

In the meantime here's a teaser shot of the wall, if you're in the area check this out in person these guys work cannot be fully appreciated unless you have seen it with your very own eyes.

Call us if you want to give your business a makeover too!

Red Bull Curates The Cumby..

With Artists: Tarns, Kab101, Matt Stuckey and CWR

A while ago we undertook this very cool project for Red Bull and The Cumby Hotel located in Adelaide. Had a great time working with KAB101 who I've known for many years, and it was a pleasure to work with local artist Matt Stuckey for the first time. CWR and myself added some colour to the outdoor beer garden too.

WOOLSHED ON HINDLEY (ADELAIDE)

In-house Artist Tarns & CWR

The Woolshed on Hindley street got a lashing this week and have offically been branded with the sting of talented in-house artists Tarns and CWR. Tarns starts inside with the bull on wooden panels with colourful segments then moves on to shape it up outside with bright cowprint shapes scattered across the wall. It seems all to appropriate to add a bull and of course the festival theatre an icon of Adelaide. CWR always comes through with one of his lovely ladies, this one a cow girl who is shaping up very nicely! The official opening of the new beer garden is coming up so keep your eyes and ears open for the dates to check this one in person.
