For Emmie

On By ResaIn Street Art47 Comments

I heard about a cat painting on an electric box.

Artist: Alexander Bacon

After walking for an hour with no luck, it was right in front of me. It wasn’t on a box, it was on a silo!

Artist: Alexander Bacon

 I fell in love, and knew it would be for Emmie, even though Emmie looks completely different.

Artist: Alexander Bacon

Emmie (Emily) is Georgiann’s Cat

Artist: Alexander Bacon

The silo is round, and I wondered what the cat was looking at.

I even lucked out with an art shot when the sun came out for 30 seconds.

Graf Artist Bacon w/ ?

On By ResaIn Alley Gallery33 Comments

It’s an old piece in a parking spot, in an alley in Cabbagetown.

I’m sure the graf writing says BACON. There’s more obscured by the trees.

So, 2 artists probably worked on this.

Cars might block some of the art, but the reflections can be wonderful.

Egg of Birdo

On By ResaIn Birdo, Street Art49 Comments

There was this crazy ugly egg on Queen W. It somehow advertised a condo.

Artist: Birdo

The art supply store is right beside the egg.

Artist: Birdo

I bumped into Birdo in the store. He was buying spray paint, and told me he was painting the egg.

Artist: Birdo

I grabbed a couple of pics, then decided to come back when it was completed.

Artist: Birdo

Looks like the egg is hatching!

Artist: Birdo

Best egg, ever!!!

Elicser has been a fave of mine for years.

Faces and their expressions are a forte of his.

Posted in 2015, I’ve walked by this piece for a couple of years, now, but something seemed different from last time, so I took pics.

The Artist:

In 1788 Robert Burns sent the poem ‘Auld Lang Syne’ to the Scots Musical Museum, indicating that it was an ancient song but that he’d been the first to record it on paper. Read the original & modern lyrics!

It was -20C. I had an errand by Graffiti Alley. I said don’t go into the alley!

Artist: Nicolas Canon

I couldn’t control myself. It was rutted ice and snow. I walked in the ruts.

Artist: Nicolas Canon

Even if there was nothing new, look how gorgeous the alley is! There is miles of painted alleys & lanes.

Artist: Nicolas Canon

I found 5 new pieces. It seems the artists kept going even after the cold set in. I’m so excited, I’m posting one now!

Artist: Nicolas Canon

I wore fingerless gloves & wow, whew, thaw time was required.
