I’ve heard of 2 car garages, but this is my first 2 cat garage.
Unfortunately, there were pathetic tags on the cats’ foreheads.
I used a touch up tool, and as amateur as it is, I am posting because I adore this sweet piece.

Thank you to Neil P. & Hannah S.
It’s on 3 sides of a garage.
I start with the face, because I adore it.
Love the reflection!
Below is actually the first side I saw, as I walked up the alley.
I could have breached the fence, but it wasn’t necessary.
The face and Taj Mahal were on the garage door end. There was a car parked, and I couldn’t get in between.
However, I got this wonderful Taj Mahal reflection in the car.
You can see a wisp of the girl’s head scarf on the left.
The third side is gorgeous.

Mosaics are art. I found these outside, so they qualify as Street Art.
This one was on busy downtown street.
The next one is old, in rough shape and found in an alley. Broken mirror pieces are part of the mosaic. That is me in the shatter!

No name on this one, just a piece of gum.
I fell in love the second I saw this!
The second second, I thought of GiGi!
Then I thought of all cat lovers!
Then I took a sheer gluttony of pics.
Now, I share some of that joy.
What an alley!
What a cat head!

The almost solstice sun cast long shadows, on older tidy garage doors.
This door had vines growing over it. Shadows cast are dramatic, veil-like.

I start with a car roof reflection of Elicsr’s wall portrait of Frida Kahlo.
Mexican artist Frida Kahlo (1907 – 1954) is remembered for her self-portraits, and paintings filled with bold colors & Mexican and indigenous culture .
I believe the title “Queen” comes from the idea that she is the original”Selfies Queen”. This article from “The Guardian” Frida Kahlo: feminist, selfie queen, queer icon and style muse of 2017 is very interesting.
In 2006, Frida Kahlo self-portrait, Roots, was sold for $5.62 million at Sotheby’s, NYC.

This painting is quite old for alley art. Possibly 10 years. It has survived in a heavily tagged area.
Elicsr has built a lovely flirtation into this mural.
In an area of Toronto heavy with street art, Elicsr holds fast his creative style,
…while making some coin doing a commercial mural.
He has put eons into painting the streets & alleys of Toronto.
Oddly enough, The Dirty Bird is a waffles & chicken joint.
I like waffles!
I imagine this is made from fresh frozen strawberries & almond milk. In reality, a classic milkshake.
Lots of maple syrup.
Waffle sandwiches?
