Cyclo Group construction manager, Harrison Boon invited people to take up a paint brush and share what the South Coast meant to them.

Mr Boon said it was especially nice to see how the faces of the kids lit up as they picked up the paintbrushes.

"They had the opportunity to grab a paintbrush and do whatever they wanted on a small section of a wall, it was really nice to see," he said.

"The whole point of the exercise was to give parents and their kids freedom to come down and express themselves and just I guess spend time together as a family."

As mentioned last week, Mr Boon would choose Monday morning the three artworks he found had the most effort put in and represented the area best.

Picking the top three, Mr Boon said the winners were Shelby, Holly Doyle and the Sapphire Coast boardriders.

He said Shelby's art featured a beautiful encircled sunset, while Holly Doyle had done a similarly impressive sunrise over the waves.

Mr Boon feels these three artists deserve the prizes because they spent the most time trying to capture what Merimbula and the South Coast meant to them.

"I think sunrises and sunsets are a huge part of this area, there are so many beautiful spots to see a sunrise or sunset, so I think artists that left their impression on me are the ones that really tried to capture that in their art."

"I really like the Sapphire Coast Boardriders, not only because it was the neatest but because they teach kids to surf, what those guys do is a really essential part of life down here, especially for some kids," Mr Boon said.

Overall a diverse range of paintings were etched into the wall, the majority being people signing their names.

"I feel like the exercise brought people and the town a bit closer together and that was the whole point and I was really touched to be a part of that."

He said it was a joy to see parents with kids on their shoulders to paint the higher sections, while passers by joined in the fun and added to the wall.

The activity really allowed people to express themselves and get involved in a project together Mr Boon said.
