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.

The Artist:
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?
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!
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.

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.

A new Indigenous inspired mural, by Philip Cote, graces my hood; the Village of Roncesvalles.
A new to me song, by Buffy Saint Marie & throat singer Tanya Tagaq, graces my spirit. You Got To Run (Spirit Of The Wind) is the most powerful song I’ve ever heard.
I’M BLOWN AWAY
You could listen while perusing the rest of the mural, but I doubt you will be able to take your focus off of the intense performances. 
Here are some of the murals hi-lights.
Philip Cote says about the mural “I am here doing a Sundance song to honour the ancestors and recognize where I come from”
Roncesvalles was originally settled by Colonel Walter O’Hara in 1850. O’Hara (Irish), a soldier in the British army was captured by the French in the Roncesvalles Gorge in Spain; hence the name Roncesvalles.

Buffy, a multi-media artist, rose to prominence in the late 60’s, with the folk music movement. However, once she began using her voice to support native causes, her songs were censored in the USA, and yanked from playlists.
Someone said (paraphrasing) It’s amazing how afraid powerful men in suits are, of a girl with a guitar.
Now that I’m Graffiti Lux Art & More, I get to post a wider variety of creativity.
Above is a self portrait of my youthful, one-eyed alien self. Below is a butterfly on a garage door.
Charlie Zero wrote the unique micro poem below.
My comment to him is titled: Buck Poem Eye
This alley art is the closest I have to a Buckeye Butterfly. However, if you click on the butterfly art below, you will go to Timothy Price’s blog, and see the real thing. His shots are wonderful!
Below is Princess Blue Holly’s alter ego as Rene Rosso, Torch Singer. In a gown I designed, the hem is a butterfly’s folded wings. Many thanks to Holly, my muse/model!
Here is PBH on an undercover assignment, as a showgirl in the Folies Bergère . She is a mistress of disguise.
