Joni, on Reflection

On May 4, 2016 By ResaIn Murals, Street Art21 Comments

I’m sure it’s Joni Mitchell.

It’s on Bank Street in Ottawa..

…with Gordon Lightfoot.

Although, I’m not sure who the last 2 (accordion & guitar) are.

2 Fox & a Boar

On May 1, 2016 By ResaIn Murals, Street Art33 Comments

This is the first mural I spotted in Ottawa.

I gasped as we drove by. Zena was driving, so I was able to spot it. I returned later to shoot it.

I love the colors. The panorama looks fab blown up.

I can’t figure out this animal. The best I can come up with is a boar.

Any other suggestions?

The Artist: Yeah, I can’t read it, but it’s in conjunction with Ottawa Urban Arts

I love the burnout from the sun!

Zena parked us, & a wonderful face & hand were there.

This is all I have time for right now. Will shoot some of the amazing street art I’ve seen in Ottawa, on the weekend.

China Doll & Dragon Wall

Be still my beating flower drum song!

Zena & I were headed to the tailor & I spotted this big swath of color.

The wall is almost like a tile, and there are no first story windows.

I used a neighboring second story porch to take a lot of the shots.

This looks great if you blow it up.

The face is fantastic from a gluttony of angles & perspectives.

Nick Sweetman’s Nature

On April 6, 2016 By ResaIn Murals, Street Art13 Comments

I think these are Lemurs. If anyone knows better, I’m all ears!

Nick Sweetman has painted a construction wall fence. It will be gone when building is finished.

I had to photograph it in 5 sections, as it is quite long and runs around a corner .

It seems Nick had some help from “Patch” & (Oben Flats or Of Ben Lats)?

Ste J Reviews – All the World’s a Stage

On April 3, 2016 By ResaIn Guests, Murals, Street Art9 Comments

Ste J from Book to the Future has found Batman…

…on a mural in Nottingham. Ste J writes this about the mural he found.

“Whilst criss crossing the Hockley area of Nottingham. I came across this befitting mural on the side of the Nottingham Art Theatre”

“If all the world’s a stage, then it follows that all the world should be thought of as a canvas backdrop onto which to put many scenes, that we the actors can take our cue from.”

“After all what is a stage but the interpretation of space and the forms thereon. Imagination is as much a process of life as art.”

“I like the idea of Batman watching me for entertainment, I can’t smash up building with reckless abandon to bring bad guys to justice but I can avoid oncoming traffic and check my shoelaces are tied.”
