Finders Keepers – Free Art Drops


I make art as a way of managing my chronic pain, and there’s only so much I want to keep, or give to friends and family. So now I’m gifting it to strangers as well through my free art drops.

If you’ve found some of my work feel free to get in touch and let me know – on Instagram or using my Found Art Form.

Game of Shrooms 2026

Game of Shrooms is an annual Art & Find event. Artists all over the world make original mushroom-themed art and leave it in public places for others to find and keep. They post information about their art and its location on social media.

My 2026 Game of Shrooms Drops

After a few years of thinking about it I’ve finally registered for this year’s Game of Shrooms. Game day is Saturday, 13 June 2026.

I’ll be putting out seven sets to be found. All of them have a felty shroom and a shroom drawing. One very special one also has a fairy door with a shroom drawing insert.

They’ll be along the Pipeline Track in Fern Tree between Fern Tree Park & the Wishing Well in places where they can be claimed without any risk of trampling any actual shrooms. If you go hunting for them please stay on the path.

If you find and keep any of them, I’d love it if you would take a photo and tag/DM me on Instagram (@Pav.Matt) with the tag #GameOfShrooms2026 or use my Found Art Form.
