It begins with the glint in an eagle’s eye.

Then we are taken through a First Nation’s experience, via this fabulous mural

A stunning Thunderbird, and other symbols mark the path!

I’m thinking this is a nicotine plant.

This wolf, and all of the animals depicted are A+

A beaver, Canada Geese and a Heron. (Or is it a Whooping Crane?)

The Eagle

A Raven

A Brown Bear

A Buffalo

I managed to take the entire mural from across the street. I left the photo file large, so if you click on, it blows up beautifully.

Go-Go Getso & Birdo!

Birdo & Getso painted this board fence wrapping a high-rise construction site.

It wraps 2 sides. I started at the west end where a Birdo horse lives in a lime green circle.

There are 3 abstracts, all in colorful circles, following to the east..

Then there’s a cute…raccoon? with different size ears.

Followed by 3 more abstracts.

Where it turns the corner, there’s a cute …. donkey?? or Kangaroo?? with different size ears.

Five more abstracts run along the north to south boards.

The final Birdo is gorgeous!

Judging from its condition, the barrier seems to have been there awhile. It feels like a piece or 2 were missing.

A Big Beautiful Bouquet

I send these flowers out to Carolee Croft.

She has done me the honor of reviewing “Nine Black Lives”, which I wrote several years ago.

She called it “glamorous” & we all know how I love glamour. I find it everywhere, even in alleys.

I went wild and used up the rest of my camera’s battery when I saw these.

Chris Perez has covered 2 sides of what I would call a very large shack. He’s turned a vicious eyesore, into a thing of beauty with his abstract floral painting.

Internet was down for a few days, felt like weeks!

Finally, here is part 2 of this very original mural.

This part is more mixer, but the music has made it happen.

Reggae, the King’s Music

I went to a unique area of the city to get this fab Reggae mural.

When I found it, it was in a parking lot filled with cars. Yay, reflections!

I only knew basic history of Haile Selassie. However, if you are interested, as I was you can read the BBC article: Rastafrian Beliefs Regarding Haile Selassie

Moving on, it looks like Bob Marley leading into Haile Selassie …

… which forwards into ..

The Skatealites

Then the final fab bit.

The full length of the mural is fantastic!

In 1788 Robert Burns sent the poem ‘Auld Lang Syne’ to the Scots Musical Museum, indicating that it was an ancient song but that he’d been the first to record it on paper. Read the original & modern lyrics!

Uber Dogs

Not the first dog, as I walk off the bridge, but what a beauty.

This mural is too, long for 1 pic, or even 1 post, so I put the mural in order, left to right. When you walk off the Queen St. bridge at River, find a skateboarding dog!

He follows a White & Black dog.

A Black & White dog meets the White & Black dog.

Very cool. Chick & Rabbit approve.

Then there’s this big cute goofy guy.

Another sweetie with his blue squirrel friend.

Second part of this mural in next post.
