The tallest mural in Ireland has been completed in Dundalk! Created by Sam Bates, the artwork is 41 meters tall and depicts the warrior god Lú. Bates spent ten days completing the stunning art piece on the side of the Crowne Plaza Hotel. The artist used 247 cans of spray paint and 180 liters of emulsion paint to depict Lú holding an electric blue-colored sphere in one hand and a sword in the other.
