It was sunny last Sunday. It’s been mostly all grey since, again.
It’s been the darkest winter + spring = ever!
It makes a blue and dizzy feeling.
Just trying to put a light hearted spin on it.

The Artist: I wonder if the signature is behind the trash bins?
Lucky shot! The rays & light arc are due to the sun coming up from behind the building.
This piece of street art is based on the Mount Corcovado, Brazil, statue of Christ the Redeemer.
Built in the 1920s by Heitor da Silva Costa, it is an art-deco statue designed by Paul Landowski.
Considered a symbol of Rio de Janeiro, Christ the Redeemer is the 5th biggest statue of Jesus in the world.
This was truly a challenge to capture. The dead end alley is very narrow, and filled with a host of debris and machinery. I shot from below.
I zoomed in.
I shot from across the street, which is why there are wires in the shot below..
I stood on a 2 foot high pile of collapsed, waxed cardboard boxes.
When I stumbled out of the alley, a car had parked in the entrance. Yay, reflections!
Christ the Redeemer was vandalized in 2010 by a house painter. He had tagged his head and right arm with graffiti.

Artists: This painting is part of a project of 7 wonders of the world. Mike Kennedy became project coordinator. Many artists, including students were involved.
Mike Kennedy passed away recently. A memorial wall was painted by many of the artists he worked with. I will post that in the near future.
This statue became one of the Seven New Wonders of the World on July 7, 2007.
There are Easter Bunnies & Easter Eggs, but all I have is a pigeon.
If the pigeon looks like it’s spraying graffiti, well, it is.
I think the colors look Easter Eggy!
This piece was unfinished when I found it on the side of a garage.

Oh yeah! Easter Chicks go nice with pigeons. Have a fab long weekend!
Eunice Miller is blooming as an artist!
After driving big rigs for many years, at 50, Eunice has done a 180. I was always thrilled to hear one of her tales about being on the road.
Now I’m thrilled to see another work of art from her.
Her painting skills have evolved quickly, and her eye is wonderful.
I am extremely smitten with this painting! Wow, Eunice!
⭐️ THANK YOU EUNICE ⭐️
Eunice is a very interesting person. You can learn more about her on her blog: Living and Lovin
As well as painting, she takes a mean photo! Check out some of her photos and paintings, or book a private painting class at: Folsom Mill Studio
There is a cool bio on Eunice’s Shopping Site where you can buy everything from a-z with her art on it! OR: you can purchase a print from SOCIETY 6 by clicking on the S6 Logo!
It is, and has been very grey in Toronto since January 1.
Fortunately, I have this bright and beautiful garage door.
Vernal Equinox is nigh!

I found this in an alley, & it made me think of Holly from House Of Heart
I sent a pic to Holly and asked, “Does this look like you?” She answered positively yes, then mentioned something about ducking lightening.
Then I muttered I should be doing graffiti tours in Toronto. Holly said she’d drive the bus. Well, one thing lead to another, and we formed the Boogapony Dancers.
Of course we would need the perfect outfit to dance in front of graffiti, street art and murals. We came up with the outfit you see here.
UNPLUGGED for acoustic music
PLUGGED for electric music
