When wandering down one of my usual laneways recently, I was amazed to come across this huge wave down the side of a building which had previously been the target of a lot of tagging. This piece even wraps around the back of this building so it catches your attention from either direction. Signed by artists Bomba, Hope, Ren, & Zion it was a fabulous sight on a winter day!
Taking part in Monday Murals. For more murals click here.
I love the simplicity of this one - I understand the wave!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope that no tagging mars this delightful wave.
ReplyDeleteOh this is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIs it time for Toronto to ban aerosol paint cans?
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed be a great find on a winter's day!
ReplyDeleteI am so impressed that Toronto covers up tags in this fashion.
ReplyDeleteYes, this is nice! Like the colors and it reminds me a bit of an art project on Times Square where they painted the street and made it look like a river: http://www.mollydilworth.com/timessquare.html
ReplyDeleteI hear the Beach Boys.
ReplyDeleteWow, surf is WAY up! Beats the heck out of miscellaneous tags. I really like that you found the signatures and published their names. It usually indicates they had permission to paint the walls. I could see where this would brighten a gloomy winter's day. Thanks for participating in Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteHard to be sure from the photo, but it looks like a huge mural... big improvement over tagging!
ReplyDeleteVery 'refreshing'!
ReplyDeleteThat's a neat mural - and «Louis» likes the fact that it doesn't look like it was done by taggers!
ReplyDelete«Louis» thanks you for your visit to San Francisco Bay Daily Photo.
It's simple but amazing.
ReplyDeleteLove the fresh blue colours Red, this one would brighten up the darkest spot.
ReplyDeleteMuch preferable to all the random stuff on walls.
ReplyDeleteIt's a tsunami of art!
ReplyDeleteLove the various shades of blues!
ReplyDeleteI can almost hear the sound of the waves! ;-)
ReplyDeleteA quite effective "upper" for one's mood. Represents fun times. Do you think it will be left along by graffiti bums?
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic! I hope it discourages tagging. Nothing worse than taggers doing their "dog pissing impression" on murals like this.
ReplyDeleteA wave! Great idea to decorate a long building.
ReplyDeleteRe the giant snail: all ceramic works are in that garden year round. I took the pic last week and it's winter. :-)
