inspired by pigeons under the pass

I don’t know about you, but I largely subscribe to the theory that pigeons are rats with wings. It turns out these creatures can be inspiration for some, though, such as the artist who produced fantastic graffiti on this Davenport Ave underpass wall.


The vines on the wall add to the imagery.
It looks like this piece may have been an artist collaboration. Does anyone know whether this was painted in different phases? I have a feeling the simpler illustrations have been there for longer and the multi-layer complex graffiti parts are newer.

Underpasses are usually so ugly. This one sure is fun to look at. (The white spots are snowflakes.)

This shot portrays what I previously saw – a blur while driving by.
But this time I stopped to inspect the details… and now I like it even more.

I am glad I found your blog on bing. Thank you for the sensible critique. Me and my boyfriend were just preparing to do some research about this. I am very glad to see such great info being shared for free out there.
