I’m presenting this mural in 2 parts.
This pano shot takes in half of the mural.
Working left to right, I’m impressed with the faces of Elicsr.

It is, and has been very grey in Toronto since January 1.
Fortunately, I have this bright and beautiful garage door.
Vernal Equinox is nigh!

Perhaps these 2 hummingbirds are on love? Well I’m in love with them!
The previous São Paulo post had hummingbirds, as well. However, they are different paintings that appear to be by the same artist.
Luv, luv this bit!
Below is a piece from a globally famous street artist, Eduardo Kobra.
I adore the humor revealed in the series of photos Carolee took of this apparent King.
Brazilian artist Paulo Ito s very political with his work. A mural he did of a starving child eating a soccer ball during the The World Cup went viral. Click on the pic below to read a news article on it!
Carolee says: “Also, in the picture of the mouse and the emperor, it’s kind of hard to see in the photo but the threads in the emperor’s coat are actually real!”
“I often walked down this alley when I lived in Sao Paulo. It fostered art installations, capoeira performances, concerts, children playing, people walking their dogs.”
⭐️ THANK YOU CAROLEE ⭐️
Carolee Croft is a Canadian writer who had been living in São Paulo, Brazil. She has now returned to Edmonton, Canada. She has just released a new novel Ariella’s Rebellion.
Carolee writes novels that are in her own words “I hope not too naughty for your audience”. I find that a tad endearing coming from an admitted fan of Spongebob. You can find her books on Carolee’s Books on Amazon
“The purple-haired sailor was always visible from my window. I will miss her and Brazil!”
“The 3D art is from an alley that’s located at the site of an underground river, Agua Preto, and hosts a community of artists and an environmental group that would like to see the river resurfaced.”
It was a very tasty day in Graffiti Alley.
Of course this is not Uber 5000. It is Doctor Evil.
However, he must have had something very tasty.
This is Uber 5000. I’m in the lift taking pics. I have a better one, but I’m saving it for when I do the actual post of the mural, which was in progress.
When Uber invited me up & in, I was thrilled beyond words. Then he said, “let’s see how high this goes!” WOW! We went up to the fourth story. There was some art I had only ever seen a sliver of from the ground.
Then he told me UV lights had been installed over his mural. That was why some of the colors seemed stronger than usual. This mural will glow in the dark. There are 2 more day-glow murals being installed in the city, and I know where they are.
I knew I had to leave him to his work. I snapped a few more new bits in Graffiti Alley on my way out, including Dr. Evil.
I felt blessed!

When I visited Uber 5000 website, I realized he had done a Jimi Hendrix mural I had covered. Click on Jimi’s pic to visit the post.
I will be updating the post, as I did not know who the artist was at that time. I will also be adding an Uber 5000 page to the “Artists” pages.
Never in my widest dreams did I think I would get to capture the above piece. Thank you, Uber 5000!
⭐️ This special post celebrates the Chinese Zodiac: THE YEAR OF THE DOG. ⭐️ “Hello, I’m Hera, your Hostess of Ceremonies on this exciting occasion”.
“I know I’m gorgeous, but my mom’s art pillows help add to my beauty. My mom is an artist, Marina Kanavaki and she has a blog!
At this celebration you will meet many dogs. You will meet real dogs & graffiti dogs.”
Above is Clay & Ruty. Their mom is Belén Soto & she has a blog, too! Hmm, that looks like a park behind them! Of course, dogs LOVE to go to the park with their humans.
“Year of the Dog begins on February 16, 2018 & ends on February 4, 2019.”
“So, let me introduce this stunning white graffiti dog I met in Graffiti Alley in Toronto.”
“Ah, beauty, thy name is dog! Did I mention dogs LOVE to go to the park with their humans.”
“Many Graffiti dogs, like this St. Bernard, live in the alleys.”
“Some like me, are rescue dogs. (Thank you mommy! ❤️🎵❤️.) The poor little thing below was rescued by Resa’s friend. Buddy was kept in 1 room, never had baths, never went to the park & lived in his own filth.”
“Buddy lives with Resa’s friend now. He goes to the park, gets baths & love.”
‘There is no Year Of The Human. When I see dogs like Buddy (and me before Marina found me) I know why.”
“However, I do wish there was The Year of the Mommies and Daddies Who Love Dogs, Mommies like Marina….. & Belén, where as you can see, there is no shortage of love.”
“Some dogs bay at the moon, even if they are painted & live in the alley.”
“Many graffiti dogs have gone into modelling and advertising.”
“Did I mention dogs like to go to the park?”
“Before I forget, I’d like to show you more pics of Ruty and Clay. Some are from when they were puppies.”
“So, While I’m being a good Hera waiting for Marina to take me to the park,”
I want to tell you that you can buy my mom’s art on Marina’s Art Shop Many products with her art on them are available on Society 6 Her music is at Marina’s Music & don’t forget her art calendar on MagCloud
Also, Ruty and Clay want me to tell you that you can buy Belén’s ceramics at Belén’s Tienda
