Butterfly Lane

A few weeks ago the third annual butterfly laneway painting project took place, this one along a lane south of Harbord St. Once again it was organized by Nick Sweetman whose work I have shown before (click on the label below) and was supported by the city and the David Suzuki Foundation. I think there are around 20 garages that have been painted with butterfly motifs. This one with the dancing Monarchs had no artist name unfortunately. It was sunny day with a lot of tree shadows but that just gave a bit more texture to the doors.

    What a beautiful find.
    Those Monarchs look so gorgeous.

    20 garages with butterflies? That sounds lovely. :)

    It''s a great idea and making the artwork permanent would be even better.
