Description
Coloured Cows Wait On Martins Barge by Joan Stratton - A painted art piece showing Martins Barge full of colourful cows waiting to be transported over to Greens Island to graze, located on Boggy Bridge Road, just off Lake Mokoan Road at the Winton Wetlands, Country Victoria, Australia.
The sign by this barge art piece tells one of the many stories of agricultural history within the reserve. Martins Barge was used to transport young cattle over the water to Greens Island to graze. The cattle were fattened and prepared for market before journeyed back to Boggy Bridge Road where they would be unloaded. The Martin family of Bungeet built the barge in the mid 1980s. The barge now rests here at the high-water mark. When I was a kid this area was an artificial lake called Lake Mokoan, all the grass land you see here was water as far as your eyes could see. Although a locally popular watersports destination, the Victorian government decided to decommission the canals and lake to restore the landscape to a more natural wetland and woodland ecosystem. In 2010 Lake Mokoan site was reformed into the Winton Wetlands Reserve.
This piece forms part of my Street Art Wall Art Graffiti Collection. Where known I have credited the wall/street/graffiti artist and listed the location of the piece. With many of these works I have incorporated the surroundings, landscapes, streetscapes and given them an arty feel, to enhance and/or blend with the street/wall/graffiti art to create an overall art piece.
