Picking it up on this gorgeous peony
Then come the roses with writing.
A bad old truck was blocking this piece, big time. There were no reflections due the colour of the truck and a hardy coat of dirt. However, the bird is the best part.

This is how the alley finished.
In a grubby alley is painted a gorgeous garden.
I’m working left to right through the alley.

Not sure how Mike Kennedy passed, but he was young. You’ve seen many of his collaborative projects on this blog. The artists did a wonderful tribute painting to his memory.I will post that in the future.
Perhaps he felt my joy taking these pics, and sent a ray of shine. It’s been very grey and dark since late December.
Nick Sweetman organized a Butterfly Project in an alley alongside a kids’ park.
It is part of the David Suzuki Butterfly Project
Wish you all had been with me. It was most wonderful and delightful.
These are 2 of the paintings.

Hope you will take a moment to read my guest post on “When Women Inspire”. Hey, that’s my bra you see burning!
Today I welcome Resa McConaghy with a guest post on the history of “burn the bra.” Is it a feminist legend? Or a feminist myth instead? In her well-written post, Resa includes discussions of Gloria Steinem’s A Bunny’s Tale, the 1968 Miss America Pageant, the Freedom Trash Can, and more. Oh and that burning bra in the photo above? Resa set it afire to mark the end to her research. Take it away, Resa.

This has to be very new. It’s in the alley close to home, and I walk by often.
It says Mural In Progress. 
I’m thinking that Luv Sumone hasn’t had time to finish it, and the taggers can’t control themselves.
As you can see the alley is a taggers heaven.
I’ll be watching this one!

Another accidental double exposure. I will figure out how to do them intentionally, I hope!
Here’s an odd bit I found on the side of a building.
The front & side of the building quietly announce coffee and dressmaking.
I’m unsure of what this image has to do with either, if any at all. I like it a lot!

I’ve always enjoyed the Rolling Stones. I was saddened to hear of their tour’s cancellation, due to Mick needing a valve procedure.
The musicians below me jammed a lot to the Rolling Stones a few nights ago. It put me in a purist pencil & paper mood. When they went into a 20 minute jam on Gimmie Shelter, I went scribble crazy.
You can find Gimmie Shelter and Kiss Away in the hair. Ran the sketch through a couple of filters for this post.
Mick begins singing at about 2:25… the backup female vocals are AAAA+++++
Sending healing vibes out into the universe, for Mick!
