Mid August 2020 Urban Artwork Mural Finds

This post is mostly a grab bag of things that I have stumbled upon in August !

Elicser Elliott Mural

Discovered this mural by Elicser a couple of weeks ago.

George Floyd Mural

I honestly don’t know who did this tribute to George Floyd. It’s really incredible.

Eyes Art

I think someone added these eyes at the bottom of the mural. Not sure how I feel about it.. it kinda of takes away from the George Floyd mural.. but maybe there is a different meaning behind it.

Flipsbsc Swirl Art

Ubiquitous Flipsbsc added his trademark swirl. He might have painted the drum as well. Looks like something he would do.

Nick Sweetman Mural

In Graffiti Alley there’s – well…. graffiti. Someone wrote that underneath Nick Sweetman‘s black panther. At least they didn’t cover the artwork.. but they could have found a better spot.

Toyed Mural

“25 Years of doing this a this still get toyed !”
UrbanDictionary

A graffiti artists term for a novice. More experienced graffiti artists will often write “toy” next to the tag or graf of the novice.

Someone has a video on YouTube about ‘Toyed’.

Bruno Smoky Mural

Like I mentioned before… the lack of cars in the downtown core has made it easier to take photos of street art but it hasn’t stopped the selfie takers.

U11tra Sticker Art

I try and find who does the stickers I find. This is by U11tra.

Slole & TRP613 Sticker Art

Collaboration between Toronto artist Slole and Ottawa artist TRP613.

Alex Bacon Mural

I think Bacon has had this wall for awhile. A new business messed up his mural.. but he came back to fix it up.

Vuducats Mural

Not 100% sure this is by Vuducats.. but it’s across another mural that she did.

Elicser Elliott Murals

For the past 4 years these murals by Eliscer Elliot was blocked by garbage ! I have a thing that I refuse to move garbage. Some people do for their photos.. but I have seen lots of rats in some of these alleys .. so no thanks.

Woman Mural

This appeared recently. I think it says ‘lux’ on the bottom right. It’s really brilliant. I like the simplicity of it and the randomness. It’s one of my fave finds of the past month or so.

Luvs Mural

Another mural that was blocked by garbage dumpsters. This is by the artist who formerly went by Luvs

Karşıyaka 1987 Mural

I had to Wiki this one.

Karşıyaka Spor Kulübü is a Turkish sports club located in Karşıyaka, Izmir.

Andrea Manica Mural

This mural by Andrea Manica was hard to capture because a car was parked there all the time.

Back in 2016 planters all along Queen Street West were painted for Nuit Blanche .

Paul Petro Gallery Mural

This is outside Paul Petro Gallery for a show. Very clever and well done.

Alana McCarthy Garage Door Mural

New to the street art scene – Alana McCarthy shows how it’s done.

She did an incredible job on this ! And it’s one of her first attempts… I think she’s gonna do very well.

Be Kind Unwind

This guy changed the artwork in front of his place regularly. I was taking a picture of the previous one and he came running over thinking I was taking his picture. But I was taking a picture of the sigh. He was cool though..
