Who else loves the way Melbourne light seems to glow at the end of a hot summer day?

'The Long Way Round' is an original hand-cut stencil painting by Melbourne artist Geoff Cunningham, set near the St Kilda Esplanade as the light starts to soften and the day begins to cool. A lone roller skater moves through the scene beneath the sweeping white footbridge, caught somewhere between movement, memory and that particular Melbourne evening light.

Part of Geoff’s Summer Lovin’ series, this artwork taps into the nostalgia of beachside wandering and the freedom of daylight saving - eking every last bit out of the day before heading home.

Painted using hand-cut stencils, aerosol and acrylic, 'The Long Way Round' combines nostalgic Australian imagery with Geoff’s clean graphic style and layered stencil technique. The bridge gives the work its rhythm and structure, while the skater brings the human moment - focused, sunlit and gliding home through the last warmth of the day.

Is this an Original Artwork?

Yes. This is an original one-off artwork by Geoff Cunningham. I may create related pieces from the same stencil set, but each work is made unique through changes in colour, cropping, composition and narrative.

Is this artwork signed, framed and ready to hang?

Every piece is hand-signed on the front and features my distinctive stencil logo on the back, authenticating each work as an original. Most of my pieces are already framed. For most unframed works, you can add framing at checkout if desired.
