The mural, as well as many other art works in public spaces, is part of an ongoing council program to discourage graffiti.
Dickinson has started working on the walls and ceiling of the walkway underneath Scenic Drive, which provides beachgoers with access from Ridge Street to Henderson Parade.
His aquarium design includes seahorses, sharks, a monster from Creature from The Black Lagoon, a dolphin, lots of fish, a blue groper and a stingray.
