WHAT A HOOT BY ALAN McARTHUR [PAINT-A-BOX STREET ART MALAHIDE ROAD - GRIFFITH AVENUE]
Alan is graphic designer based in Dublin, graduated from NCAD. Through his day job as a deputy creative director and his freelance work under the name Dexal Design he has developed his own style of creating artwork through geometric shapes.
The artwork was inspired by the nocturnal long-eared owl, one of the resident owl species to be found in Ireland. The geometric patterns of the design are based on the shape of the owls feathers as they spread their wings as they fly silently at night.
