• Some spraypaint, some budding Banksys and a whole lot of inspiration has turned one of Perth’s most boring walls into a dash of spectacular colour.

ARTISTS from all walks got together this week to slather some colour on one of the most boring walls in town.

The Melrose Street noise wall was until recently a slab of olive drab panels separating a slice of residential Leederville from the freeway traffic. 

Last year the local town team Leederville Connect put in a project idea for RAC funding to liven it up and secured a grant to turn it into a canvas.

Artists from Blank Walls and HPM 6007 guided locals to get in on the painting, polishing off the florid design at the April 24 street party and giving the wall a bright new appearance.
