“American Woman” was a huge hit, and “The Guess Who” was from Winnipeg. That was before Lenny Kravitz gave it new breath.

Not an official video, but I adore it. It is of the time.

This mural by Larry Rich graces an outer wall of the “Long and McQuade” store in Winnipeg. Here’s the rest of it.

Signed “Elicser 08” in the bottom left, this lovely is found in the alley S. of Queen W. near Bathurst

Not sure what  it’s about, but it is tagged Pato© or Patoc or Patoo at the top. There is a graf artist named Pato from Brazil. Is it a collaboration, or did some smart asp just tag it for fun?

The fact that it has survived 6 years in a heavily tagged alley without being written into oblivion, speaks to the respect this street artist commands.

Tagging is rare in Winnipeg, but a black door in a Graf Mural is a target….

…and what’s that neat green fringe emanating from the rear-view mirror?

Uch, then Sherrie caught me making an asp out of myself when I went in for the shot

Here is the rest of one of the historical murals by artist, John Kuna that make Toronto beautiful. I had been so excited when I found it, that I came home and hastily posted just one pic in the oxymornically titled post Vintage Youth
