Brenton See (born 1985/1986)[1] is an Australian artist, known for painting murals, especially of birds.[2][3][4]

See, whose mother is also an artist, studied graphic design at a technical and further education (TAFE) college and undertook an apprenticeship as a tattoo artist.[2]

Locations for his murals include Perth Zoo.[5]

See, a resident of the Fremantle suburb Hilton,[3] has written on his website:[6]

Ever since I was a child I have been fascinated by creatures big and small... An interest in birds came in my early teens... My mother, an amazing craft person herself had always been a massive influence on my creativity and pushed me to start creating my own works.
