Going Squirrelly

On By ResaIn Garage Doors128 Comments

I’m getting a weird plug-in message when I use the classic editor.

Research said it’s related to my theme, or the classic editor.

So, I’m trying the block editor and it’s not happening.

Anyway, fell in love with the squirrel when I saw it, but the sun was bright and made annoying shadows on the art.

Figured while I’m in the blockhead, enjoying a learning curve, I might as well try a feature! I chose image compare.

The first one is full sun and shadows. The second one is 3 hours later. There was 1 thick cloud over the sun. I had about 5 minutes to shoot the squirrel.

Before the merciful cloud, I went back after about 2 hours and got this shadow.

All in all, squirrelly.

The stupid message:

Old Wolf Fence

On By ResaIn Alley Gallery91 Comments

So, it’s the fence that’s old, and it makes the wolf look old.

The slats are warped and uneven.

The entire fence slants to one side along the alley.

The alley itself is uneven, slopes downward so minimally I didn’t know I was crooked until looking through the camera lens.

The wood is rotting.

The paint is chipped, peeling and punctured.

I just love it!

Beauty of Imperfection

On By ResaIn Faces, Murals145 Comments

Not sure how old this mural is. The colours are still quite bright, but it is chipped and peeling like crazy. It’s fab.

“Woman can have mustache”. That’s what it appears to say over the top lip.

“Love is Us” over one of the eyes.

“blow it” is between the eyes and over the nose.

It took a bit of time and scrutiny to figure out “Beauty of Imperfection”

Of course there was some wood trash in the way when I found it.

So I moved it, then replaced it when finished. The text over the trash was a tad challenging to figure.

“Sometimes you have to Be a Lion So you Can Be The Lamb you are “

Not sure if it’s “Love” over the other eye?

Bird in Hand

A mural for the coming spring.

I travelled across the city to Greek Town.

I found 5 works of art worth posting, 2 ruined by the sun’s shadows, 1 for just in case and 1 WTF.

All in all a fabulous day!

The day was made even better by the wonderful vibes, shops, restaurant patios and people in Greek Town.

I would definitely consider moving there when we eventually downsize. It’s a beautiful lifestyle.
