From Marina Kanavaki at Art Towards a Happy day, here is the ninth sign of the Zodiac as imagined by Anakreon Kanavakis, Marina’s father. I’ve totally been enjoying the trip through the Solar year calendar.
It’s getting near the end of the Zodiac drawings by Anakreon Kanavakis. It’s also the end of being able to buy Marina’s art on products from Society 6. However her art prints are still available from Imagekind.
I thought it said “Welcome”.
A month earlier I had driven by, and this mural graced a parking lot.
I finally had time to go back and capture this massive and fabulous mural.
When I got there, it was about to break ground to become a high rise.
I thought 2 things. 1- The mural will be blocked from view.
2- Where do all those cars I saw park now? I mean, there’s nowhere to park in the city.
Yay!! I found a small gap in the chain link fence, just enough to squeeze through.
I didn’t have to climb!
Here are some close ups of details.
I found this on another Day.

Nowhere on the sign did it say “No Trespassing”!
Jeep (one of the most beautiful cats on earth) would like to pass on this information that she found on Gigi’s blog.
Thank you, Gigi, and Jeep! Hugs to Gigi’s cat, Em! (Another one of the most beautiful cats on earth)

I’m smitten.

I’m not sure who the singer was the first time I ever heard the song “Suzanne”, but it wasn’t Leonard Cohen. I adored it. A couple of decades passed before I realized Leonard Cohen wrote the song. Later, I found out it had originally been a poem.
Who better than to fill in more of the gaps, than Holly. A brilliant poet in her own right, she has inspired me greatly.
This mural is on a wall that runs along a small parkette, where many people take their dogs. This gorgeous Doberman is near the end of about 200 feet of wall.
So, let me start at the beginning, of what is titled “Green Space For All”. I will keep the art in order as we move along the wall.
Between the dogs are colourful burners (aka writing, lettering).

More panorama.
Honestly, I only recognize the Doberman and Dalmatians. If you recognize any other breed, let me know!
Occasionally there are 2 burners in a row.
Gorgeous dogs!

Some of the artists:
My dear friend John Howell’s Twiggy has had a big operation. I send them a herd of OXen.
Marina – Art Towards a Happy Day has a beautiful dog named Hera. Hera is part Pitbull, and is loveable. Each year, Marina shares information and misinformation about the breed.
To all who have dogs, please give your doggie a pet or a kiss from me. They won’t know it’s from me, but they will still like it!
Welcome! Or dare I say, “Bad Evening”?
As you can see from our Header, GLAM’s Hallowe’en post is “Hands & Feet” above the rest, of this post.
So hang onto your skulls, the horror has just begun!
What do you know of horror? I’ll show you horror. Look, it’s our premier running away with greenbelt money.
Bah! The people stopped him in his tracks. I’ve got true horror for you.
The Toronto Blue Jays are in the trash…..again!
What are you complaining about? I’ve been waiting, without food or water, 30 years for them to take the Pennant!
Worst year ever!
Stop all yer whining! Yer buggin’ me. Yer complaints have no teeth.
I have teeth!
Sharp!! You’ve got to try my special yellowing toothpaste!
Forget that wart guy! I’ve got blackening toothpaste.
ENOUGH! Don’t know why I bothered painting you freaks? Nonetheless, until next Hallowe’en, STAY FREAKY!
This post is dedicated to my Hallowe’en Birthday Niece
