Here’s the second half of the first side of Angel’s (aka Cruz1) most glamorous B&W Mural.
The more I look, the more I see.
The more I see, The more I love…
… And there’s a lot to see in this mural.
I’ll do the last part on my next post, the part that is wrapped around the corner.

In the next 3 posts: Angel (AKA Cruz 1) has done an intense B&W Mural.
It’s in a long lane running west off Ossington a few blocks north of Queen W., and it wraps around the corner. It’s a “Beautiful Behemoth”!
I captured the mural right to left, as I faced it.
Here’s looking back from just before the Knight, which is included in the slideshow.
Then there’s a Che Guevara.
I’ll finish off this side on my next post.

An INTERVIEW With ANGEL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Cby4n0WqAM#t=64
I found this in Koreatown, on a side street south off Bloor W. near Christie.
The entire wall is about 4 times longer than this piece, and it seems like all of the wall is prepped to be muralized.

The beauty of this Piece excelled my pulse.
Yet, it was new, and painted over part of the “David Bowie” mural from my last post.
The artists to my knowledge are: Jarus, Kels and Bacon.
It’s found in a side lane outside the subway station at Bloor and Bathurst.

Alley north of Bloor Street at Bathurst.
This is from a ginormous, older music themed mural that is disappearing beneath vicious tagging and fresh graf.
I’ll be posting what I can of the leftovers, and there’s a new piece that’s very gorgeous.

Bill Webb (BW Thoughts) sent this gorgeous historical mural from Ottawa, Illinois, U.S.A.
As I have often had to do, Bill shot the mural in segments. Here are the segments from left to right.
Bill wrote:
“If you ride the I&M canal out from Chicago to the end, about 80 miles in you come to Ottawa ( named after the Indian word for trade )”
“it is at the conflux of three rivers, and the canal goes through there( built in 1848 ), but as far back as the 1600’s the French traders settled here and traded furs with the Indian tribes of the region.”
“The rivers were marshy and prone to flooding, so when the canal was built, little towns began to sprout up along the route, and goods and people began to flow West. In many ways this town is still a sleepy place that mirrors small town America at its best.”
Bill (BW Fiction), thank you for the pics of this wonderful mural, and the thoughts to go with it!

It’s one of the oddest pieces I’ve seen. It must be saying something!
Found it in a lane near Ossington and Bloor.
Maybe painted by SPUD1, or tagged by SPUD1
