Dems & Doll – Everything Art

On By ResaIn Graffiti Alley100 Comments

I’m such a Street Artist groupie! I was thrilled to meet Dems & Doll, while they were painting.

Honestly, we chatted for awhile, exchanged names, I watched them paint for a bit  and now can’t remember their real names.

Anyway, Dems painted this fab face. I went back a couple days later to shoot the finished works.

Here’s Doll painting!

She gave me a wonderful reflective not sticker, with one of her faces. It’s taped on my purse now.

I took some pics of the art piece Doll gave me. It’s actually more monochrome, but I took it at night w/street lights/ overhead light &/or flash. I love it!

A Rough Patch

Funny how art can hit one.

When I saw these 2 faces, I felt something I know but couldn’t put into words.

It’s got something to with that they are attractive faces,

but the wall is rough.

We all go through rough patches, now and again.

Perhaps that’s whyI love Graffiti Alley art so much.

It’s one big rough patch, but there’s good stuff in it.

Rebecca Budd, host of 

had GLAM (aka moi) on her podcast. From her home in Vancouver (click on Tea Toast & Trivia to go there), to mine in Toronto

we talked everything Street + Alleys + Art.

Yes, I was a bit squirrelly at first, and think I sound like a chipmunk. However, Don her in residence Sound Man/Audio Engineer did a great job at making it all sound fab. Thank you, Don!

In the end I couldn’t be stopped. I sang like a bird.

Rebecca, here’s some Thank you flowers for you!

I think this is a Portuguese Rooster.

We have lots of variations of these roosters in Toronto, and they are all gorgeous.

The background looks like a vintage dinner plate design.

This stencil art is on a garage door.

This is my 1499th post. I hope you’ll all join me on Sunday, when GLAM presents its 1500th Go-Go Gala.

The Poser Bunnies

On By ResaIn Poser Bunnies

Poser Bunnies were some of the first graf art pieces I found when I began collecting in Toronto.

There was an ample supply all over the city.

Then they disappeared, for years.

They have returned, but they are different. They’re all happy.

The bunnies used to have other expressions: angry, devilish, rascally, indifferent, maniacal even.

Now, they’re just all happy!

Here’s the 2 above in their Graffiti Alley home.
