I quite like this blue face. 
I found it in a laneway that had been converted into a restaurant’s patio.
Pics taken by Resa – September 14, 2020
Toronto, Canada
The artist: One of those names below. It is from a long wall, and many artists painted on it.
Apologies for certain ill alignments. This art was small and right off the sidewalk.
Graffiti Lux Art & More 
Street arts ( mural arts ) become very fine arts we can enjoy in the street on the sidewalk. . Your pictures are a good example .
Love ❤
Michel
Thank you!
I feel very lucky to live in a city with lots of outdoor art and murals.
My city is all the more beautiful!
❤ – Resa
What I enjoy most about your photos, Resa, is that you capture the murals from different angles which prompts me to look deeper into the mythology and messages that are intertwined. One eye sees outward while the other looks inward. Brilliant concept. Then there is the third eye, the space of higher consciousness and enlightenment. A wonderful way to begin my Friday!! Hugs and more hugs!
Ah, Rebecca!
I’m glad I was part of a good start to your day.
I agree about your thoughts on this piece. There is a lot of art in this laneway, but this, the smallest of all; struck me the most.
This whole lockdown thing this year has curtailed the artists, and prevented me from leaving my hood to search for more art.
Nonetheless, I found art!!!!
I’ve got enough to get through to the spring, and have high hopes for a brilliant flourish over the summer.

I am so with you, Resa!! Looking forward to the brilliant flourish!🤗🤗🤗🤗
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
This face and the jewellry, flowers, branches surrounding it are so tremendous beautiful and enchanting. I love it! ❤
Agree! It is small but elaborate. I adore it!
This certainly is a beautiful blue woman. What a great find.
This was a long lane come patio. There is so much art there. Yet this smallest of all the pieces, stood out.
Wow! It’s simply amazing all the art you come across.
I love walking and finding art. It’s like urban hunting…. or something.
I’m calling the pandemic…the poundemic.
I’m not getting to go all over the city hunting for art; such great exercise. I’m sitting and drawing and sewing.
I’ve lost my girlish figure.
Urban hunting eh? Well you are so good at it.
Poundemic. You should copyright that! It’s what everyone has experienced as a result of all this, it seems.
You made me think of a short book… a novelette maybe.”The Poundemic”.
HUMOUR
No, I will not be using before and after pics of me.
Although, I could use before pics…and drawings for after.
I’ve written 2 books, that very few have read.
Why not another?
Love it. Now you’re talking.
Hmmmm. You seem to have placed a U in there, Resa. 😉
Come on now. Weight comes and goes for all of us. Beauty and talent, they have staying power.
a U?
You mean in HUMOUR?
I’m thinking Monty Python.
Yes, yes, staying power is fab. erm, ech, cough.
Haha!
You’re too much. 🙂
Beauteousness!
IKR!!!!
Wow. How beautiful and what an interesting placement on the wall. 🙂
Agree! This had the lowliest spot on a very big long wall. Yet it is my fave. 😀
I wish we had street art like this. It is lovely xx
I feel very lucky that Toronto is street art mad. Covid has put a damper on the paintings, but I’m hoping for a burst of glory this spring and summer.
There’s a lot I know about that I haven’t captured, yet. However, we are in lockdown, and I can’t leave my hood/walking area.
Fortunately, I have enough to get through to the spring. xxoo
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Resa. Lots of love. xxxx
xxoxoxoxoxo
A cheerful sight!
Agree! Cheerful and pretty!
The blue lady brightens up the place!
Agree! I wouldn’t mind having a blue complexion.
I love this artwork. The blue lady is so exotic. Gorgeous shots Resa. xoxoxo
Yes, she is exotic! I fell in love. She is around the corner from the BIG mural I found that made me think of you, half and half with the red and blonde hair.
So, the new Art Gown is made from a decorative jacquard cushion cover from the 70’s, leftover lace scraps from a wedding gown, scraps of old colourful lining and a giant piece of fabric from the early 80’s that is like a rubber sponge in drape, almost impossible to get the needle through but shines like a gown should.
About 75% done! xoxoxo
It’s beautiful. I love the color blue. It’s great.
Agree! Hard to believe it had the worst spot on the wall.
Wow! The beauty of Art 🤗🙏❤❤🌹🌹❤
Yes! Thank goodness there is such a thing as art… all of the arts! 🤗🙏❤❤🌹🌹❤
A modern day Medusa but without snakes for hair and a much more benign expression. 🙂 Another terrific find, Resa.
janet
I do like this piece! 🙂
Thank goodness there’s no snakes! Whew!
I suppose I could like a snake… I do from afar. They eat mice, don’t they?
Your shots I saw on Frank’s post are gorgeous.
I’ve said it before, you have a great eye!
I actually have two eyes, Resa. Which one did you mean? Ha, ha. 🙂
I like snakes that I know are poisonous. Glad you liked my photos on Frank’s post.
LOLOLOL!
I guess I meant your third eye.
Welcome!
🙂
She is a blue beauty–and of course she would stand out, at least to those who actually look.
She seems both flirtatious and wise, like a goddess or perhaps a muse calling to you.
Yes, I think a muse. Whatever, she did call out to me. It’s the best piece on the wall.
One of the guys drew a warthog, there are swirls, faces, ot designs and more on this large long wall. Still, this muse stood out to me, calling.
Perhaps because she knew you’d listen.
This is so beautiful, Resa and somehow those purple / magenta waves above her work wonderfully to the composition! Great find!
Speaking of waves…. waves of love are sailing your way!
🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Egads, I get so behind with blogging. Of course the new Art Gown is about 75% done. So I am very excited, and spent at least 4 hours today sewing it. That occupies my hands and mind.
I wish I could sew faster, draw faster and read faster.
Also, I’m a bit dizzy floating over all of these waves! Still, I love it!
I love you!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
75% sounds great!
You should keep the pace that is natural to you and no other. Rushing does not serve anyone or anything (even if we sometimes think otherwise), so take YOUR time! 😘
On those waves, I hope the renewed waves don’t get you seasick! 😉
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love this one Resa. Such a cute face. Hugs on the wing.
I like it too! Lots! {{{hugs}}}
The blue face is winking at you so, clearly, it likes you too!
Maybe, but maybe it knows how I feel about Marmite?
You’ve never even tried the stuff.
Yes I have. It hasn’t always been banned here. My mom always had Marmite, Bovril & HP sauce. Seems it was banned this century.
Looks like you’re trying to ban English stuff from Canada. Harumph!
Well, we just signed a new trade deal with the UK. I think we will be buying a lot more stuff from you!
Not good news for Canada. Expect to be flooded with scotch eggs.
Huh? We don’t need no eggs. Scotch…sure we’ll buy as much as you can sell!
We’ll hold them to ransom until you send us maple syrup.
No sweat! Lots of that over here. It’s very tasty!
It grows on trees in Canada, I’ve heard.
Ahem! In tress!
Lay off the maple syrup, lady!
No way!
As a matter of fact, I eat nutritional yeast flakes almost every day, as that is what I can get here. Great nutrition boost for veggies!
Good. Start saying “Tally, bally ho!” and you’re one step closer to being British.
YAY!! I think.
Tally, bally ho!
Beautiful choice and also playful and fun. Thanks for sharing your colourful finding!
Terrific the blue makes the piece (street) feel alive. 😀
Agree!
Good fine. She’s cute and spiritual. Love the wink. Also, she reminds of Smurfette 😀
Wow! Talk about a dichotomy! From Spiritual to Smurfette! Very cool comment! 😀
haha, dichotomy true. In lyrical form, maybe: “Om, om, om, la, la, la-la la lah -” 😃😃
WoW! You sing nice! 😀 😀
She is lovely and it’s like she was calling to you! 💗🙋♀️
She was Christy! She totally stood out on a very large wall of art! xo
Exotic and mystifying! Wonder what she sees with the third eye. Your ladies are always special.
Thank you, Sidran. I do love the ladies I find painted in the street!
Hope you are well!!!!!!!
I am good, thank you, Resa.
👍
Splendid. What a marvelous piece.
Yet, it is the smallest piece on the wall! There is a lot of art on the wall, but this little bit stands out.
Smallest piece? Now I know what you mean. It happens sometimes. Up to you to find the tiny relevant detail.
Thank you! I pride myself!
You have a good eye. It shows in your photos and your art. And a hand too. Shows in your costumes.
Thank you!!!
These are amazing
Agree! Love this!
