I luv, luv Mermaids!
I missed a Mermaid!
There are 2 cleverly inserted Mermaids in a mural at 1036 Main Street, Winnipeg.
I saw the second one tonight for the first time. She was up in the opposite corner from Mermaid Blue.
I did a crop and tried to fix it, but it was not good so I’m not posting it.
I’m so happy I saw this one and shot pics of her. She is so very beautiful!

Pet Traders commissioned it in 2003.
The brutal climate of Winnipeg has taken its toll on this stunning work of art.
Hopefully, this most awesome piece of art will be restored! As flaked as it was, it was a joy to behold!

Glory, It wasn’t sleeting!
However it was “Thanksgiving” weekend, and the “Rocket” ran over a piece of wood with a very large nasty nail in it. Sherrie’s dad, and Poopsie rescued us.
The shutters are all painted. Unfortunately, the purlple-ish reefer smoking wolf was the only one down when we we there.
It’s a fun bit!

Artist Jill Sellers sent us this beautiful shot of her skateboarder at 558 Keenleyside Street.
Click on pic to enjoy a large view!
When I took shots of it, time had passed & it had been deteriorating. I am thrilled that Jill was kind enough to contact me & supply us with a pristine vision.
I have put my pics into a slideshow, as although not so gorgeous, represent the joy I felt upon discovering & approaching it.

One of many, many Transit Boxes that are muralized in Winnipeg.
Each box has a theme.
This appears to be an old-tyme downtown scene.

Yet another mural I shot in the freezing rain.
Kildonan Custom Upholstering is the occupant of the building.
It’s an older, small mural that is in great shape. Everyone would like to find out who the artist is.

Every chance I had to photograph this head shop, it was 0c and light freezing rain.
Hemp Haven
The painting is 10 years old.
There are many neat elements in it.
