hello

Olive Cheng is an experienced Perth based artist who works across the media of public art murals and pyrography (wood burning).

​

Olive Cheng’s role as an artist is underpinned by her training as a landscape architect. She holds a Bachelor of Design from UWA and has experience in working on  public art projects across rural and urban WA.

 

Olive is also a qualified primary school teacher, with a Masters of Teaching from UWA and over half a decade of classroom experience, and together uses her background professions in both design and education to now pursue projects as a full time independent artist. She loves working with communities as an artist and public mural painter. She designs and installs a range of artworks.

​

Olive’s public art style typically depicts nature and Australian botanicals. She draws directly from the natural world around her, celebrating Australia’s diverse and unique flora in bold, joyful and whimsical designs.
