The only signature I see is Chou, but I have found reference that this piece is by Elicsr, Chou and Urbanski.

I pointed it out to Sherrie on our way to The Hard Rock Cafe. It was peeking out of the Ossington alley, and I said that looks like an Elicsr. When I got close, it seemed different.

Much to my chagrin, I didn’t see the man’s head until I looked at my photos.

Here’s a slideshow tour of more of the mural. Oh, the little figures running along under the mural are ceramic animals. That’s another post.

I guess missing the man’s head was like missing a forest for the trees.

These lovelies are found in the alley S. of Queen W. near Bathurst.

The trash bins were in the way of any signature,

but this was on the other side of he doorway.

I say it’s all Elicser. You can correct me!

This a few doors along.

I need to find out the name of this Artist, and I will. I see this style here and there, and it’s unique.

Ossington Alley, W. side N. Of Queen W.

I like what the artist did to make the sharp edged undulations of the building work for their piece.

This looks like a horse to me.

The other lovely looks like a mule…. to me. Not sure of the artist, “Milky Way”? Or is that a title, or?

Signed “Elicser 08” in the bottom left, this lovely is found in the alley S. of Queen W. near Bathurst

Not sure what it’s about, but it is tagged Pato© or Patoc or Patoo at the top. There is a graf artist named Pato from Brazil. Is it a collaboration, or did some smart asp just tag it for fun?

The fact that it has survived 6 years in a heavily tagged alley without being written into oblivion, speaks to the respect this street artist commands.
