With over 800 paintings and three decades of experience to his name, Mr Zapp will be going on tour across Victoria to share his talents with the region.
Visiting Shepparton, Seymour and Wangaratta, the speed painter will be working with local support groups to raise funds for community causes.
“The idea behind this exhibition is really it’s more of a fun tour,” he said.
“It’ll help raise money for a local group... we thought, okay, we want to be able to direct some money towards a good cause.”
The exhibition will be held at Shepparton Brewery.

On Sunday, September 21, an exhibition will take place at Shepparton Brewery.
Showcasing his military-based paintings, landscapes, portraits of first responders and a couple of contributions from his Legends of Aussie Rock show, there will be plenty to explore.
After the live show, Mr Zapp will auction the painting, with all proceeds dedicated to aiding the SES.
Anyone wanting to attend the show and view the exhibition can purchase tickets for $30.
