Festive Reindeer Mural by London Artist Fanakapan
As the end of the year is fast approaching and while most people wind down for the Christmas and New Year period some artists were still out hitting the streets of London getting into the festive spirit with some Christmas themed works.
Artist Fanakapans' Festive Reindeer Mural

By chance, we caught up with London artist Fanakapan earlier this week repainting the metal gates along with the Regents Canal with a festive-themed mural for the holiday season.
The artist has been painting at this Hackney spot regularly throughout the year, earlier murals have seen him paint a cartoon Snoopy character and a helium balloon version of Woodstock the bird for a work he named 'Woodstock Got High'.
We also got to see some of the other works painted at this location at intervals over the year including a 3D chrome octopus!

We returned over the weekend to catch some photos of the finished work before the holidays.
If you want to catch the chrome Christmas Rudolf, you will find the work located on Canal Walk in East London right next to Fanakapan's Neochrome Skull mural.

On a Christmas roll, Fanakapan returned to Brick Lane and began work on Hanbury Street on another larger-scale mural with Art of the Hood hooking up the spot for him.
After checking in on the Rudolf mural to catch some finished photographs, we caught up with Fanakapan once again marking up the initial sketches and outlines for the work.
But what with us heading to the airport to catch a flight we will have to wait until after the holidays to catch the completed mural.
