Once Upon A Beanstalk

Once Upon A Beanstalk by artists Mike Smash and Jonny Buss is located Logan neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Reminiscent of the fable of Jack and the Bean Stalk, this mural is both painted and created through use of mosaic techniques. Covered in flowers, this giant beanstalk grows towards the sky reaching even above the height of the wall it is painted on. Three people climb over the stalk two supporting it while a third passes a bean down to a waiting fourth person.

Location Note: As of 2018, mural is only partially viewable, covered by fencing and adjacent structures.
