Painted in 1991, this mural has weathered 23 brutal Winnipeg winters, and the vicious sun of 23 prairie summers.
I wish I could have seen it freshly painted.
I want this kiss, and I know who I want it with.
Basil isn’t only a very yummy herb and restaurant, it’s yumminess of life.
It’s located at 137 Osborne Street

Long, wide and quite far back to get the high up for this amateur photographer, but finding this airplane is a sweet memory.

Take roses from my garden,
Cherries from my cake,
Take all the many kisses that
With a magic moon I’d make…
But don’t dare you the heart
On my garage door break!

Realism in the streets.
It’s at 168 Higgins, and it’s so real Sherrie and I drove by the first time without a second glance. We got it the second time around.

1914 – Charlie Chaplin stayed in this hotel, which is now a scum bucket.
I did a Post on the mural of Charlie Chaplin that resides in the parking lot.
It is a special building with special murals.
Do you think the harmonica player depicted above is Junior Wells?
B.B. King
Robert Johnson
It’s nothing but the blues!
I was fortunate to shoot this “paper doll” of Charlie Chaplin on a balcony, but it was almost a storm when I did. His effigy had blown over.

This 16 year old mural on Henderson Hi-way is on the side wall of Roxy Lanes, a bowling alley.
It’s scarred, peeling & crumbling from the brutal winters. It’s constantly bleaching under the intense prairie sun. I love it.
I took these shots over a year ago. I wonder what it looks like now?

I shot this mural of the history of North American Lumber twice within a 1 month period… trees green, and trees not green.
It was originally painted in 2000.
It was a challenge to capture.
