In a side alley west of Dufferin Street, this gorgeous piece of Graffiti Art caught my eye.

Green #1

The alley runs parallel to Dufferin, between Dufferin and Brock, and is off the main alley running south of Queen W. W.

Green #2

 The building is a bit crumbly, and the Art is a bit bleached from the sun when there is no foliage on the trees, yet the work of Art is still in very good shape

Green #3

I even like the shadows.

Green #4
