Baldwin St Beauty

I spotted this lovely lady on a wall in a laneway off Baldwin St which is a nice street lined with small interesting restaurants and shops. I like the way the square bricks form a grid over the whole piece. This is another mural by the artists Shalak and Smoky working under the name Clandestinos.

    Very colorful with a bit of an Asian flare to it. I do like the grid look.

    Oh I like it very much also Pat, this would look right at home here in Perth :) I agree that the bricks add an extra dimension to the piece, I wonder if they helped the artist work out their design sizing?

    Colorful, I'll give you that. Better than a concrete wall? Subject to discussion.

    It is just staggering how many murals you have in Toronto, RedPat. The artwork on this one is pretty good.
