25.01.2022 An Eastern Osprey and Australian Pelican bringing a splash of colour to these power boxes. Located in Eaton, WA commissioned by the Shire of Dardanup.

25.01.2022 Very excited to be creating a new mural with the students of Bob Hawke College.

24.01.2022 Had heaps of fun experimenting with some new techniques with this portrait of the enigma that is Doc Emmet Brown from Back to the Future! Haven’t delved too far into portraiture but I plan to explore further. It was super challenging to venture out of my comfort zone, but I’m pretty happy with the result. Great Scott! #backtothefuture #doc

22.01.2022 Fremantle's largest urban art gallery in the heritage-listed South Fremantle power station. An old photo taken back when public access was a little easier, circa 2013.

22.01.2022 Very excited to be showing some canvas works in the upcoming Fine Art @ Hale exhibition! They’re conducting the exhibition online this year and have asked me to feature on their blog posts. Thanks for looking!

20.01.2022 Local Purple Crowned Lorikeet painted in Cowaramup Western Australia. Tricky set up for this one in a residential staircase! Thanks Tim & Jess!

17.01.2022 Had a lot of fun with this residential commission based on the standard LEGO colour scheme.

15.01.2022 Isolation days call for a throwback! Scroll to see the development of this piece I never showed to the world, from a rough paper sketch to finished ‘crazy telekinetic lazer Sphinx’ mural. I painted this piece whilst on sabbatical in Vietnam in 2017. Mural.

13.01.2022 Scarlet Robins located at Sikes Reserve in Burekup! Fun Fact: Scarlet Robins form monogamous pairs for life with specific relationship roles. The female builds a nest and incubates the eggs, whilst the male feeds her. Thanks to the Shire of Dardanup for commissioning this project, and thanks to you for looking!

13.01.2022 Long weekends: the perfect time to lock down in the studio to work on something new. #ispywithmylittleeye

13.01.2022 skull + plant aesthetic

12.01.2022 I'm watching you. Can you guess who's eyes I used as a reference for this custom bedhead?

12.01.2022 Progress shots, viper attack. Painted in Vietnam in 2017.

11.01.2022 Excited to share my completed mural for the Hyde Park Hotel in collaboration with Feralbrewing! So much fun to add a touch of colour to this wall in North Perth. Thanks to Blank Walls Collective for the hook up!

09.01.2022 Tomorrow, Saturday 18th from 6pm, come down to @levelupstudios to help with fundraising for the current bushfire crisis burning Australia. If you’d like to contribute to the efforts, this is a great way to do so and pick up a rad piece of art at the same time, with 100% of proceeds going to relief efforts. 50+ artists exhibiting. It is estimated that these fires have emitted in the ballpark of 400 million tons of carbon. To put that figure in perspective, Australia's total emissions from man-made sources last year was roughly 540 million tons. Every little bit that we can do helps. Well done to the Level Up Studios Crew for all their hard work.

08.01.2022 My approach to staying sane during these challenging times: creating. Just because we’re all stuck inside doesn’t mean we have to stop creating and playing. With suddenly so much free time on my hands I’m looking forward to creating some new stuff and sharing it with you here. I’ll be painting as much as I can, as well as drawing and hopefully make some stop motion animation videos too. Stay tuned to see the results...

08.01.2022 Hey everyone, @levelupstudios is putting on a show this weekend to help with fundraising for the current bushfire crisis ravaging Australia’s countryside.

From all the team at Level Up, hope to see you there!

Our build, The Heart Machine was created arond the question "what fuels your creativity? The giant heart shaped machine is powered by a constant supply of fruit and veggies, fed through a conveyor belt. THe whole operation is tend to by a team of operators and scientists (and a few monkeys!) The free workbooks is available at www.scribblersfestival.com.au. Thanks to Sundae Studios for these shots!

04.01.2022 Progress shots from blank wall to finished Pegasus! Thanks for looking, hope ya’ll are keeping safe out there!

04.01.2022 Super stoked to announce that I’ll be appearing in the upcoming season of LEGO Masters Australia, alongside one of my best mates @alexctowler and a host of ridiculously talented builders from around the country. The first episode premieres at 7:00pm this Sunday on Channel 9! LEGO was a huge part of my creative development as a kid, and to participate in this competition was a dream come true. I’m super excited to share everything Alex and I created during our time in the Brick Pit. Hopefully some light, wholesome and family-friendly entertainment will be just what everyone needs at the moment PS. If you'd like to follow our progress on the show, you can follow me @jacksonharveyart on Instagram as I won’t be posting any content on Facebook. Alternatively you can also just watch the show ;)

03.01.2022 A little in situ mock up design drawn in Procreate. My dream isolation activity: re-paint my studio! Stay tuned as to how it turns out in real life... #isolationart

03.01.2022 Looking forward to building some Lego tomorrow in Fremantle! This free ticketed event is held at Victoria Hall, 179 High Street, Fremantle on Thursday 16 July from 10 am 2 pm, I think it is almost sold out!

03.01.2022 It was an absolute pleasure creating this mural with the year 7 Selective Art students from Bob Hawke College, supported by the City of Subiaco. A massive thank you to all the teachers and students involved and to Alex from The Corner Gallery for all of your help. Well done to all the students! Your mural is such a wonderful contribution to your local community and I hope it has brightened up the walk to school!
