Chichen Itza w/Leopard Bonus

I can’t help myself. I’m starting with the leopard, although the post’s header is Chichen Itza.

I seem to find a lot of these larger, hard to photograph murals.

We’re all fortunate that I am not showing more pics of the cat’s head. I was out of control photographing it!

Driverless Street Art Eco-Car Premieres in Kensington Market

The street artists are very busy this summer!

This car is a big hit! Kensington is a popular tourist destination, and everyone wanted their pic taken beside this. I had to hang around for quite awhile to get my shots.

Also, it’s parked in front of one of my fave murals, which I did a post on 2 years ago. I call it  Kensington Flower Girl. Check it out!

The artist is unknown to me at this time. As always, I will update, if I find out.

 

Argentina – Independence Day

On July 9, 2017, Argentina has 201 years to its independence history.

Artist: Cesar Alonso Rodriguez

I felt Argentina when I saw this mini-mural, so I sent a pic off to Aquileana from La Audacia de Aquiles, after all, she lives in Argentina.

Artist: Cesar Alonso Rodriguez

She replied, “YES that graffiti certainly seems to depict Argentina…. Tango… Perhaps milongas ( a tango style).”

Artist: Cesar Alonso Rodriguez

It’s like I can hear and feel the music all the way up here in Canada!

“In (some of) Caminito´s murals you can see a typical family and a technique to write words called FILETEADO.”

“You can Google: Caminito, Buenos Aires, Argentina to see the location, etc…”

I certainly did, and it looks very interesting, not just the location, but the shops and the views!

Argentina’s National Animal – Cougar or Puma- I thought this looked like one, although the smile is a bit sweet. It is from my collection.

⭐ THANK YOU ! ⭐ Aquileana

Your contributions are fabulous! I have learned more about Argentina in doing this one post, than in my entire life. (except for about Eva Peron)
