Fishing

This is yet another mural from Dundas St in the Islington neighbourhood of the city.  I just discovered it a couple of weeks ago and could find no info about it so have no idea who the artist is. The colours, especially in the underwater section, are so incredibly rich and vibrant and the detail on these water creatures so wonderful that it is a shame we don't know the artist. It must be pleasant to sit out on that balcony in the summer!

    I like the playfulness here! Also I like the colours that speak of warmer weather. :)

    Pretty cool to see the above- and below-ground images. I can see the appeal in this one.

    This one really is beautifully done. It's kind of like looking into a huge aquarium.

    I agree with EG here Pat, this one will give you hope that spring really is coming even though it doesn't seem that way..

    Every time you post a mural around Islington you remind me of my times taking Mississauga Transit from my former office in Miserysauga!!!

    This is one beautiful mural. Looking at the mural full size it appears that all of the creatures are local.

    Fantastic. Incredible composition and true to life detail. Islington must love its artists to offer so many opportunities to show their work. Thanks, Pat, for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
