Bees At Work

I was driving along Eglinton Ave in the Mount Dennis neighbourhood and passed this wonderful mural of bees and flowers. Of course I made a fast turn and went back to catch a pic of this beauty. The colours of the flowers were such a treat to see at this dull time of year. The artist for this one is Nick Sweetman whose work I have shown before. I love it! I will give you a peek of the section around the corner to the left tomorrow.

    A fantastic mural RedPat, love the bright colours and details, no wonder it caught your eye.
    I seem to spot murals at a distance, my husband doesn't even see them, lol.
    Thanks for participating.

    I've always wondered what the life of a mural is. Does the artist come back and do touch ups?

    That's a great find, Pat. And it brings the focus on the bees, which are disappearing, which is terrible because they are so necessary for our plant life.

    You found a great mural. Fine insect life and bright colors. Murals are few and far between in our small town.

    We need more of this kind of art to revitalize neighbourhoods, and this one in particular reminds us of the importance of pollinators.
