The Hera Box

I know not all dog art I find is Hera, but I think it is!

Hera is Marina’s sweet girl.

Working our way around the box!

The sun glared on the body of the orange legs guy side. So, I present it 2 pieces, the blob corners the top.

I’m bats for the bat!

Back to the beginning!

BONUS BOX PERFORMANCE

Spiderman has been performing in the streets of Toronto for about 10 years.

I was lucky enough to catch him atop a painted box!

Only 10 seconds!

Kizmet

Yes, it’s spelled different.

KISMET

a hypothetical force or personified power that determines the course of the future events : fate, destiny.

Kizmet 32 is the artist who painted this box.

Although it was kismet that I bumped into this art,

… on a sunny day along Lake Ontario.

That meant shadows, but I think they work here. They are barely noticeable on the east side of the box.

None at all on the north side. The lake is in the background.

Can’t see any on the west side. Ha! Suddenly I see KIZ.

I’m luvin’ the shadow on the south side.

I had to get in on it.

Back to the beginning.

Shey Wolf

SHEY told me she loves wolves. I told her I had one for her!

It’s a beauty… where else? On a power box!

I hope you like it, Shey!

There’s a face on the other side. It sits in a dark grey shadow, clouds or shine.

I had to enhance it, like crazy!

Anyway, It’s all about the wolf, and Shey!

Rise Up – The Parachute Club

On By ResaIn Boxes, Tributes74 Comments

“Rise Up” is a call. It’s an anthem to our better selves, for a better world. The song was fun to groove to in the 1980’s, but was anybody listening?

The Parachute Club was a Canadian band formed in Toronto in 1982. By 1987 they had three top 40 hits in Canada, including “Rise Up”

Lorraine Segato, the original front person, teamed with Parachute Club members Julie Masi & David Gray. Under the name “The New Parachute Collective”,  with emerging artists: Theo Tams, Jimmy Chauveau, Jillea, Kayla Diamond, Maya Kiltron and Britta Badour, 

… they have released an updated version to to empower a new generation of youth activists.

All profits go to non-profits.

Here is the new version, with words. Is anybody listening now?

Here is the original infectious video.

 “The enduring appeal of this song has inspired us to celebrate its legacy with a campaign to engage, celebrate and honour a new generation of social justice activists who are shaping the future.” – Lorraine Segato

Two-fer the Road

This is from the side of a power box.

This is the side around the corner.

Together they equal this.

I found this Elvis up the road. It’s painted on an opaque plastic, with kind of tiny bubbles in it.

I’m heading over to Art Gowns to work on a Special! I need to focus, so comments are closed.
