…in Graffiti Alley
My previous post was also about a walk down a section of Graffiti Alley (Spadina to Portland). This post is from the same walk – because there were so many images that I wanted to share, I decided to divide the fun into two parts. This second part takes a closer look at some of the smaller pieces.
below: Peeling paper hands…. A 33wallflower33 group of three women in their dashing outfits … and a charming man with devil’s horns and red glasses.
below: Although it’s getting more difficult to see, there’s a Poser rabbit by the door. The door is disappearing behind a layer or two of paper and paint.
below: There is a little pink stikman on the light above the door.
below: Once upon a time this skinny little guy was pink but ooops, a layer of paint and now he’s prematurely grey.
below: In her face – another stikman
below: Last stikman for today… sometimes you find them tucked away in hard to see places.
below: Party line? Four hands phone.
below: A bleeding heart, a pansy flower, and a woman with a red hat and big ear rings.
below: Polly wants a cracker before she takes over the world, or at least that’s what she told me.
below: A young woman with blue lipstick and jagged pink make up on her cheeks. A spiked collar is around her neck. Make of it what you will.
below: Another young woman, this time she’s a little softer (at least in appearance) – drawn by Catchoo.
below: Multiple Sailor dudes (trp613) in two varieties hanging out with a happy little catchoo critter and its smiley daisy balloon.
below: “Save me”!
below: It looks like catchoo has been busy.
below: More of that wall.
below: Darth Vader makes an appearance too. Who’s that man peeking through the hole?
below: One flower sprouts a bald person while the other produces a sunny orb. That black octopus doesn’t look very happy – perhaps in this winter weather it needs more than just a woolly toque.
below: There are those women again!
below: Dogma slaps standing tall in his puffy jacket and bright red mitts.
below: Riding a D7606 crayon – T-bonez always finds new adventures.
below: A collaboration between Tamm Shinzo and April Showers Art produced this little round piece – sitting on top of the clouds with the moon shining over her shoulder.
below: Cryptid Supremacy – a rat with a very long tail
below: More rats, this time “the rat race is rigged”. Also another skull (skulls are very popular!), this time by Broke Canvas (aka Colin Green) on yellow. And third, is it a rainbow or a very sad face? – slap by Rider Waitress (aka Frances Sousa)
below: While we’re dealing with rats – Squee! They are all fleeing from an NYC trash can. Don’t litter!
below: Another small collection – Catchoo shows up on a soy sauce bottle while a Sentient Cookie (aka Cecil Tian) character gets taped to the wall… remember that banana?! And last, in the top left corner, a Cartoon Car Slaps.
