The mural features 10 animals from the Julatten area and is one of many murals throughout the Mareeba Shire.
Ms Letheby also carefully restored the existing mural that features local journalist Peter Justice, painted in 1999 by Diana Abiad.
Public artworks for Kuranda and Irvinebank are scheduled for later this year.
The shire’s public mural action plan is aimed at boosting the visual appeal of the shire’s towns, reducing graffiti and promoting cultural tourism.
