This great new photorealistic mural from graffiti artist Sam Bates (aka Smug) popped up in Glasgow last week. The piece is just one of several wildlife-themed contributions by the artist over the last year as part of the Glasgow City Centre Mural Trail that began in 2008 to help rejuvenate the downtown area. You can watch Smug at work on this video from Spraying Bricks and see more of his work on Instagram.
