@LinthouseHA are delighted with the fantastic murals by Jay Kaes and Gera1 as part of @SWG3glasgow Yardworks GRID project. We can't believe how quickly they've worked and how they can upscale their artwork into large murals! tinyurl.com/New-Murals

New mural in the making. It must be terrifying and exhausting working at heights next to a busy road while the weather changes every fifteen minutes today. Can you guess the location? #muralart #glasgow
