Running In The Laneway

I stumbled upon a new (to me) laneway, just off Ossington Ave, last week which is lined with murals as the result of a beautification project but I have the feeling that this mural existed before the project. I had no luck finding the artist's name on this one. It's wonderful how they have wrapped the work around the corners of this doorway giving the runner a real sense of movement and a 3-D aspect to the work!

    It takes talent to make a mural wrap around a corner!

    This reminds of those chalk artists who work in 3-D. Love it. That runner really is moving!

    There's a nice mural of the same style at the place I took the tourist shot, now I regret I didn't take one picture of it!
    Cool work! ;-)

    Too bad the artist never left a name on the mural. They deserve recognition.
