A bold and magical blend of fine art and whimsical illustration by Melbourne-based visual storyteller Dilrukshi Mendis.
Fine Art
Narrative Paintings to Stir the Soul
My fine art practice explores themes of belonging and personal transformation through my memories. Each piece is layered with meaning, symbolism and emotional resonance.
Pawlick Bones Illustration
Absurdity Unleashed – Whimsical Design & Gifts
Under the Pawlick Bones brand, I create playful, magical illustrations featuring cheeky animals and curious characters. From greeting cards to tea towels, every piece is designed to delight.
About Me
Artist. Illustrator. Storyteller.
I began painting in childhood, left art behind for a career in finance, then found my way back through storytelling. My work now bridges the personal and the universal- from gallery exhibitions to market stalls, everything I create holds a moment of connection.

I love creating custom art and illustrations – whether it’s a personal gift, a public mural or something absurdly fun. Let’s talk!
