That’s what I thought.
It’s right across from Snail Lady

The Snail Lady
It’s a whole new appreciation for snails!
I would NEVER eat one.
Although they seem to make cute pets.
They are possibly good for your skin, but I haven’t googled that.

Eye had an epic failure trying to make a Snail Lady of my own.
Still, Eye got to try 3 new colours in a new brand of water colour pencils. What was Eye thinking? A Snail Lady with blue eyes?
Rhinos’ Playdate
This post is a loving tribute to all Rhinos.
RHINOS
Gigi made Rhinos for Holly, Beth and Resa. Aren’t they beautiful? They each got to name their own Rhino.
They decided their Rhinos should meet for a playdate in a Flower Fairy Garden.
Of course, where there are flowers, there are butterflies. Hello, Butterfly Boa Lady here! Like me, the Rhinos will be adored by all butterflies.
Runway belongs to Holly.
Rosy belongs to Resa. 
Resa horned in with a little fun with Beth’s fun.
Roland belongs to Beth.
Resa scouted the garden, to make sure there were more than enough flowers for the Rhino’s, and that there would be plenty left for fairies and butterflies.
Resa photographed this beautiful Rhino & Waterbirds mural in 2014. It’s since been demolished, but if you click on the pic, you can visit the post
Thank you for for taking the time to enjoy our Rhinos Playdate Scrapbook! 
Georgiann – Rethinking Life for the gorgeous drawings of Runway, Rosy & Roland
Holly – House of Heart for the beautiful opening poem

Revenge of the Egg
This is the 3rd time that the egg outside of the Art Store has been painted over.
The Egg is oval. However, when I used the Pano setting on my IPhone, it came out round. Go figure!
The top of the Egg was higher than me, and hard to capture. The Egg is about 6 feet tall. (1.83 M). The sun was high up, glaring upon the top of the Egg.
Still, an interesting challenge to capture it for us all.
This is a realistic side view of the Egg. Some may remember the first Egg I posted – Egg of Birdo
A car was blocking my ability to go all around the Egg, but the car was black & all clean and shiny. The next 4 reflections are lots of fun.

I’m partial to Eggs. I don’t eat them, but I do an interpretive dance called “The Egg Dance”. It was performed last at The Chicklets’ Poetry Party in April. Click on the pice to enjoy an encore performance!
4 Gi Metallicat
There was a Metallicat a few blocks from me, but it got painted over.
It was very exciting to find a new 4 Gi Metallicat in Kensington Market.
It’s the year of the butterflies out in the alleys. On my street art safari, I also found birds and faces, but no cats, except for Metallicat.
Maybe next year will be a good street art cat year.

Morning Ice Harvest on the Humber
Imagine doing this to make a living?
Anyway, it’s so hot this summer, just looking at this cools me off.
Painted in 2014 on a very rough, flaky wall by the lakeshore, It has survived with dignity.

Clown College – Queen’s end Redux 1+
Josh Middleman was the 4th of 7 children. His harried parents had few moments for him. From his 1st day at school, he felt invisible.
No one stopped him from joining in schoolyard games, although he was never a winner even when he won. When he graduated, they were one gown down & one cap short. Josh had to wear his suit. No one noticed. Although he graduated in the top 10 of his class, serious career positions eluded him. His life was a wreck.
One day he came upon a Clown College. Frustrated & bitter, he shuffled through the doors with an upside down smile on his face, and a tear in his eye.
“You’re in” shouted the Clown College recruiter, as he handed an enrolment form to Josh.
With a painted smile and a hidden heart, he graduated with honours.
As a clown, Josh made many laugh and feel happy. Others were crazy clown scared. Whatever, he was not invisible anymore. Josh Middleman was a “must have clown” for all children’s parties, parades and local promotions.
Eventually, he married and earned enough money to buy a home at Queen’s end. Here, Josh would don his ginormous clown’s shoes and think with glee, “In your face, unhappiness!”
