770 Ellice Avenue
Spray paint from 2012
It’s a small mural, but what does size have to do with art?

Steve McQueen – Bullitt
MIKE’S GENERAL STORE Face 4.
In 2011, a painting of this Steve McQueen – Bullitt – movie poster was added onto an outcrop.
Here is the side, originally done in 1999, with the 2011 addition. The prairie sun was my usual foil.
Steve McQueen was the epitome of cool! He was only 50 when he passed away from Mesothelioma.

Of Treasure & Trash
MIKE’S GENERAL STORE: Face #2. At 52 St. Anne’s Road, you can sell or you can buy Vintage Collectables.
This part of the mural seems vintage 1950’s or 60’s.
The store was closed on the Easter weekend day I was there, otherwise I would have gone in and tried to meet Mike or Barb.
OMG! It looks like “CHARLIE CHAPLIN” is peeking around the corner of Face 3..

Keith Richards & Neil Young
MIKE’S GENERAL STORE IS A WINNIPEG FIXTURE.
Face 1 of 4 starts with “Keith Richards”. This vintage store weaves its fab mural around 3 sides of a building.
it appears “Neil Young is also on the scene.
It’s about vintage records, and Neil has discovered a “Guess Who” album. In 2011 when Keith & Neil were added to this mural mostly painted in 1999, the famous Winnipeg band was also very vintage.
Face 2 is next up on GLaM!
This sweet image is on a small indent wall, and intros’ Face 2.

Exotic Tropic
606 Ellice Avenue.
Classified as a “Mural of Winnipeg”, “Sign’s and Wonders” has hogged the artist credited. I’d like to see human name(s).

Chocolate Dreams
Location: 180 Boulevard Provencher. Painted in 2013
The heavily textured wall (like giant stucco) and prairie sun made this fabulous mural a challenge to shoot.
Sometimes it looks like bead work images to me. I just luv it!
