In four days last week, artist Ron English completed an utterly massive mural, "Urban Bigfoot", in downtown Los Angeles area with the help of LA Freewalls Daniel Lahoda and local graffiti master Vyal One. This mural spans 140 ft. X 45 ft. and took over 800 spracycans and 40 gallons of paint to finish. A great addition to the city as Los Angeles begins to reclaim its title as Mural Capital of the World. Check out this gallery of the mural, click on any image to enlarge.
