This street art is somewhere along Dundas Street West in downtown Toronto. It's beautifully done. I'm sad that I clipped her ear off -- I may have to go back and retake it.
UPDATE: I just learned that this is one of a series of such pieces known collectively as "Mysterious Date," by an anonymous artist who goes by the name Anser. There's an article about this artist here:
I am horrified by how long it has been since I last posted. No good excuses. Anyways this is a multi-media illustration of Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid. This is where she has decided to cast herself into the sea rather than kill her beloved prince, and is now waiting for her body to become seafoam. I enjoyed reading the original story again, there's been a couple of different movies made that didn't stick to the plot at all, and it's actually a charming tale with a happy ending! (Not Disney happy but still happy)
I used one of Joni Feddersen's mandala templates as my first attempt at a mandala. My initial tangles weren't as successful as I'd liked, but as it grew, everything came together.
Some of the tangles/variations used (that I know the names of): Msst, Zedbra, Ash Leaf, Lily-eyes, Paradox, Cockles and Muscles
I was having my first go at doing Twistee (http://www.flickr.com/photos/skinnystraycat/5003328802) and I mucked it up. But rather than chuck it in I worked around it. The only way to learn is by doing!

This IS a photo! Just converted into a line drawing. This is a sample of something new and exciting that I'll be putting up on my website later today. at Our Enchanted Garden Colouring pages for young and old alike. This one is a tad complicated for young fingers but even older kids and adults enjoy colouring. I read recently about one elderly woman who used colouring as recuperative therapy following a serious illness. That inspired me to begin work to see if I couldn't add something of that sort to my website as a free image download that can be changed frequently to maintain interest and give some interactivity to the site!
Once I have a good selection of these sorts of line drawings together I'll make up a colouring book, or a few of them with different themes, and make them available in physical print and/or download form through my Lulu.com storefront. Wish me luck!

I keep whining about how all my photos have power lines cutting through them. Decided to focus my attention on the lines themselves. I will probably make a public pool for these at some point.
