The artist approached the City for Community Funding, to work with children from Mullaloo Primary School, to paint a mural along the Toilet Block in Sorrento Beach.

Peter Ryan has a recognizable style, and artworks are vivid and highly detailed. His Australiana series features a Man and a Dog in iconic landscapes, and the 'Life's a beach' series shows fun and quirkiness of life on the coast, as shown in this mural artwork.
