This sweet squirrel was at the top of an alley branching off another alley.
What side of the fence is he/she on?
Anyway, it made the alley look promising.
NOT! 
The alley deteriorated into trash and throw ups on all the garage doors.
However I found a face I like. Looks like it’s been there a quite few years.

“The rose, a poem of nature” – Aunt Rose Comfort in Baby Doll by: Tennessee Williams
If the rose is a poem of nature, then Holly – House of Heart poems are naturally roses.
One day I found a single long stemmed rose taped to a wall.
I got excited, because I know giving someone a single rose holds meaning. I thought of Holly right away, because of her poetry, and all the fun we’ve had together.
Velvet Tango is an Art Gown I dedicated to Holly. The image of lovers doing the Tango, one with a rose in their mouth, was part of the inspiration for this Art Gown.
I made the gown black for its drama, and decorated it with red lace roses. Here’s a slideshow with more pics of this romantic & dynamic Art Gown!
Then came drawing the characters based on Holly, that we made up together.
It began with Boogapony Holly, a GoGo Dancer who “Ponies on down” in front of alley art. Then Princess Blue Holly, Rene Rosso & AGM Holly.
Above is RR in a net and roses gown. Below is a slideshow with a mere smattering of all the drawings of Holly characters I’ve had so much fun with.
Cool enough, all this drawing has lead to more characters and more drawing. I’ve even made some $$$ with my new found ability.
Thanks Holly!

I never know what I’ll find on a garage door.
I felt free, when I saw this.
I’m going to guess geese!
They flew around the side, in their colourful sky.

I found Frank Zappa Today!
I adore the characterization.
The trees and ivy obscured the art and its message.
It says: Stupidity Has A Certain Charm
Ignorance Does Not
I had to take this from an angle. The angle was in the first lane of west bound traffic in the road. I waited until the light was red both ways , then made my moves. Most excitement I’ve had in 2 years!
As a Veggie, I chose this song, my fave vegetable song, ever!

There was a hard to get at pigeon on the side by the mailbox, and one on the other side beside a telephone pole.
It’s been 55 years since this fight.
I don’t even know who won?
I figure it was Ali.
I just looked it up! It was Ali.
“He’s the toughest guy I ever fought”, said Ali of Chuvalo after the fight.

Legends never die. In Toronto they become street art.
Okay, I’ve always had crush on Steve McQueen.
I cut this artist some slack, as he painted this on seriously rough stucco wall. Below is the poster the painting is a rendition of. There are many Bullitt posters, but I didn’t see the exact one the artist painted.
You can buy various size repros of the poster, starting at $25.00. However, I saw an original (1968 – mint condition) theatre size poster for sale in the U.K. £4,500.00.
MANY say the car chase in Bullitt is the greatest car chase ever filmed. I agree. It’s real. No CGI! Steve McQueen was credited with the driving during the chase sequence. Actually it was shared with Bud Ekins, one of Hollywood’s best stunt drivers.
The chase kicks in at 3 minutes, but dial it back to the beginning for the full effect of this 10 minute masterpiece.
In 2020, the green Mustang sold at auction for 3.4 million dollars.
