An area in west end Toronto where they have murals painted on the walls.
Sorry picture heavy. I hard a hard time narrowing these down.

Some great art work here. My fav is the one that looks like the wall is broken through and you're seeing inside the apartment.

Cool play on word there in the title! What an amazing set of murals Toronto has! Artwork for sure. Some very creative images in there.

I love them all. The first one in the 4th set is clever.

Thanks guys. I suppose most of the credit should go to the artists. I just tried to represent their art the best way I could.
The 3D effect is really cool. I too like the one with the cut out wall.

I didn't even know that these existed. With the Gardner Expressway under construction for the next two years, a normal 45 minute drive to downtown Toronto from Mississauga is now as much as 2 hours. I tried to take the city streets instead (Dundas Street) a few weeks ago and happened upon these murals. Took note and went back last Saturday and got these pics.

Love every one, and love the way you have taken these to show them so well. Kudos to the artists, both the murals, and yourself for the great work.
Oh yes, and thanks for sharing these amazing works of art. Probably never see it in real life as waaaaay out of my element in the city.

Thanks JAS, Aub, HBG.
HBG - "Probably never see it in real life as waaaaay out of my element in the city" - Yes the the city and your area in Muskoka are definitely two different worlds. That's the best thing about this forum. You get to not only see the contrast in southern Ontario a couple of hundreds kilometers apart but in all parts of the world.
