There is no “International Cafe” in Winnipeg. Nonetheless, Sherrie and I don’t care because we are together again, and we amazing and muraling!

The “Red Rocket” is purring, and with Sherrie driving…. well who knows how many murals we will capture.

The Murals of Winnipeg

Old Gold

Graf Art and Street Art & Murals were around for awhile before I clued in.

Gold1 #2

Quite often I find untagged pieces 10 years or older.

Gold1 #1

Paint peeling, colors fading and  bricks flaking, they reveal recent urban histories.

Gold1 #3

I admit I enhanced this one.

Gold1 #4

I believe it’s worth documenting.

Gold1 #5

So begins my “Old Gold” series of Bits, Pieces and Murals that exceed a decade.

SKAM is a very well known Graf Writer in Toronto. I love the Graf Writing, but I can’t always read it. Nonetheless, I adore this style of art!
