Desmond Sweeney is the resident artist at Kawa Heart Studio. Raised on the northern beaches of Sydney with a penchant for the sea, surfing and painting landscapes, the Artist now resides in Fremantle on the west coast of Australia with his partner and fellow creative Dee Tang and their little assistants Rafa Rose, Beau Sunray and guiding angel Kawa Leaf.
Prior to founding 8footwalls, a varied background of experiences enhanced Desmond’s expertise across a variety of related disciplines including mural painting, faux effects, traditional signpainting, illustration and teaching.
