I’ve wanted to shoot this for several years.
Thing is, it’s in Kensington Market on one of the main streets, and a slew of humanity is constantly walking by. The vehicular traffic is also a deterrent.
Today, a winter’s Monday was my opportunity.
It’s…. like… so cool!
There’s little else, no single. It’s the album or this unofficial bit.
I found this segment from the documentary about him quite interesting.

Much to my consternation, my dear blog pal, A Frank Angle, is retiring from the blog world. Good-byes are difficult, so instead, I have decided to induct him into:
Opening this tribute, direct from Holly’s House Of Heart, is Rene Rosso doing her rendition, of renditions, of a song by:
…one of Frank’s fave bands;
Here is one of the many renditions.
Frank has written some very popular posts over his 11 years. One of his most interesting regular articles was “Opinions In The Shorts” aka OITS.
The first time I ever read an OITS, the opening shot was a bunch of shorts on a clothesline. I figured huh, this guy sits around in shorts, writing opinions. Cool!I was wrong; opinions yes, shorts no.
Dale, from A Dalectable Life has been a lovely, loyal co-host on many of Frank’s posts.
For this special occasion, Dale has cut short her Paris Gown fitting at Art Gowns, to model this OITS outfit I designed. We hope you have an opinion about it!
Frank is from Cincinnati, and is a huge baseball fan.
Direct from Art Towards A Happy Day is Marina Kanavaki. Marina graciously agreed to model this Cincinnati Reds Art Gown. This and all Art Gowns art here today have been specifically created for Frank.
Music has always been a big thing on Frank’s blog. Most recently Frank has been producing music concerts. However, before that he produced many Theatrical Musicals.
That’s me above, in a pair of tights with Marina’s artwork (Paths of Color) on them. I’m off to the theatre, to see one of Frank’s productions. As a matter of fact, the post was titled “Off to the Theatre in Paths of Color”. If you click on the pic you can read the post!
Frank, here’s Rene Rosso with another song for you!
To all reading: Frank’s last 3 posts are scheduled for: January 28, January 30, February 1 & February 2. Click on the pic below, to check out the first of the last.
Now, here’s Rene Rosso with her special choice of song for you. As always, with RR, the Torchier, the better.
Eye will miss you.
Dear Frank,
Time is such a thief. I just found you several years ago and now after a short time, you will not be around. The photo below (also the header, which I tried to filter into looking like one of your cosmic headers) was taken when I was in my 30’s. I dug it up for this post.
Dale, Marina and Holly were all in cahoots with me. They knew what I was up to, and they all approved their outfits.

Traffic heavy corner, and the best spot was in the middle of the street.
Middle of the street was a no go, so, I took the first 2 shots & the 6th shot from across the street.
I took these next 3 from the same side of the street.
I thought, it’s black and white, so I put it through a black and white filter for the next pic.

Look who I found on a wall!
It’s Greta Thunberg, the most famous Gen Z person in the world. In the upper left is the word CURAE. It is Latin for “Take Care”. 
Gen Z has a lot to say, and my long time friend, Elizabeth Gracen is providing them a platform to say it all.
Elizabeth, founder of Flapper Films and Flapper Press says in her introduction to the project, “I would create a platform so that they could upload their own videos to the project. The films would stream on Instagram and a YouTube Channel for those little screens they are all obsessed with.”
Is there a Gen Z person in your family, who has something to say? Then check out The website !
You’ll be hearing more about Flapper Press On both GLAM and Art Gowns in the future. My next Art Gown will be dedicated to Elizabeth, and I am very excited!

Martha and The Muffins are a Canadian band.
Their main hit was “Echo Beach”, in the 80’s.
In 2014, Vogue Magazine pronounced Queen Street West the second hippest street in the world.
Martha and the Muffins were part of the cultural evolution that made Queen St. so awesome.
It was music and all of the arts that flourished. Eventually graffiti & Street Art found its way here. I’m so thrilled to live on this street.
It’s amazing what I find painted on power boxes in the streets of Toronto.
Here’s Martha and the Muffins!
