What does the graf writing in the center say? As always, the artist(s) is welcome to set me straight.

 I thought I saw “Line Up”, but hey I’m only so-s0 at reading writing. I’ve gotten used to many local artist’s signatures & can read those.

I searched Mr. Dad One Line Up & Mr. Dad Line Up One, but no luck.

The Red Rocket Retires

Sherrie called her Bessie, & she was the sweetest red Tiburon, ever!

Betsy #1

Others called her Cherry Bomb & Ruby Red, but when it was time for Sherrie & I to go out muralling, she was the “Red Rocket”.

Bessie #6

Bessie saw more street art & murals in a few years than most humans see in a lifetime.

Bessie #4

One of her tires took a massive nail for us on an early mural hunt.

Artist(s): Rodrigo Pradel, Brian Gasenzer (all unsigned)

Sherrie often stole pics of me at work in the Rocket’s rear view mirror.

We surely miss her! Thank you, Bessie!

A Face Cut by Shadow

It’s an older mural. I’m sure it has survived due to its beauty.

Shadowface #1

In an alley off Spadina near College, every time I see it, there’s this shadow cutting the face.

Shadowface #5

… So I took the pics anyway. I muraled for a couple of hours then as I passed on my way home, the shadow was further along the mural. 

Shadowface #2

The face looked better, but the mural looked worse.

Shadowface #3

Taggers have let it survive, choosing to cluster tag the doorway, instead.

Shadowface #9

Shadowface #8

Some close-ups.

The cluster-tagged doorway is quite pretty in its own right!

 Eagle Wild was posted on August 31. It was posted out of order because it’s so gorgeous that I could not wait. All pieces in this post are before “Eagle Wild” as one moves through the underpass.
