You can imagine the difficulty of comprising a “best artists list”, as it’s obviously subjective. Although my list is not complete of the vast amount of talent there is in Australia, however i have chosen these artists from a mix of established street art “stars” and also up and coming new artists who will undoubtedly become “stars” in the very near future. Enjoy!
