Sean Yoro, or Hula as he’s known online, paints incredible artwork on suburban walls. Unlike his back-street counterparts however, you might be hard pressed to label this guy a graffiti artist.

Floating on a stand up paddleboard, somewhere in New York is Sean Yoro. Originally from Oahu, the artist steadies himself against the wall with one hand while sitting or kneeling on a SUP, and with the other hand paints incredibly realistic murals of women. Subtle tattoos adorning their shoulders or neck, these ladies look just like giants, bathing in murky city waterways where nobody would usually travel.
