Based on a design by Irish graphic artist Jim Fitzpatrick, a Dublin street artist has painted a mural on a wall of a skate park in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Mr. Maser was contacted by the developer of the park to paint the mural to commemorate the Irish diaspora. The mural is 150 ft. high and depicts St. Patrick with the words of songwriter Damien Dempsey, “Irish Americans, hold you heads high. Your courage and spirit will never die.” Source: Irish Times
