@IsaiasCrow steps across the street, after working on Gera Lozano’s Uptown GrandScale earlier this month, to take a canvas of his own. In his Uptown GrandScale mural, the artist’s image of a panther signifies the strength of the community, and the community agrees ~ with locals stopping to comment and take pictures. Follow the artist on Instagram.
