Based in Melbourne Australia, Hayden Dewar is a muralist, illustrator and painter whose work shifts between client directed projects and his more imaginative personal work.
The latter is an ongoing series of work that draws inspiration from native Australian flora and fauna, mythical imagery and the human condition to create a surreal, metaphysical world full of adventure, myth and symbolism. Projects include council and privately commissioned murals freelance illustration work (ranging from album covers to storyboards and anything in between), and creating paintings for solo & group exhibitions.
Hayden has also had 3 years experience teaching illustration & design in Tafe and runs mural and art workshops. Hayden is passionate about transforming and enhancing public spaces through mural art and thrives on the positivity and public engagement that results from letting his creativity off the leash to roam around the urban environment.
