A few weeks ago, I saw a couple street artists painting a wall orange just off of Brick Lane (near Allen Gardens); curious to see what the result would be, I checked back the next day to see black and white "ribbons" forming a running tiger on a bright orange canvas.
The artist that I saw was DALeast, a street artist from China. He painted a few more walls in London over the span of a couple of weeks, including a popular wall on Hanbury Street, Rivington Street, and Sclater Street. His artwork uses very bright background colours and looks three-dimensional. Since the large mural I saw being painted off of Brick Lane, I've noticed several more appear. Some of these have already been painted over now, though. Below are photographs that I took of his work in London.
