Early March 2019 Urban Exploration
This March has been especially cold and we are talking COLD with a windchill. That makes urban exploration difficult to say the least. I did some exploring when I could but I caught a bit of a cold. These are the best of the month so far. It’s supposed to warm up later .. so stay tuned.
High Park Tree Face
As you can see from this picture there was more unwanted snow. This carving in High Park however stands out in the winter months. Sometimes in the summer I can never find it.

I walked by this little gem so many times and never thought to take a closer look. I guess the bleak winter weather made this pop out last week (just like the tree). It’s unsigned.

Another sticker.. and this is a band. I had to google to find out.

I don’t know how else to describe this. It’s just some paint blobs that someone stuck on the fence. I’m kinda liking it.. Art is where you find it.

Graffiti Burner Murals
After I posted that Young Jarus post last week. I decided to pop back in that same alley. I realized I hadn’t been down there in a long time. There were some definite changes.

Wasn’t sure whether to post this or not.. especially, so close to Women’s Day. But the anger that someone spent making this should be exposed. SMH
