Bob Nason grew up in Surat, a small rural centre located on the banks of the Balonne River. In 1879 Cobb and Co coaches began services which terminated in 1924, with the last one operating between Surat and Yuleba. Bob Nason has painted two murals in the remodelled Cobb & Co changing station. This building was purchased by the Warroo Shire Council and became the Cobb & Co store and museum, the Balonne River Gallery, the Warroo Shire Library and the ‘Window to the Balonne' Aquarium. Bob's first mural depicts life along the Balonne River bank. Bob's second mural, completed in 2001, depicts a horse change along the Cobb & Co route. Bob is a landscape painter whose love and concern for his country shines through his work. Despite major time constraints he has had a number of exhibitions.
