A message with massive impact to all chosen ones and star seeds:
You are the water of water the source of love your light and your being is what awakens those around you.
Through you they can realize what it means to be truly loved without prejudice.
Not everyone will be able to understand you emotionally because you have a different perspective on the world, but be sure that the waves of your love will reach even the smallest corner of the universe because you are and have always been exactly what humanity has wanted for eons.
Yes, you heard right, you are a wish that has come true, which is also the reason why you often have the feeling that you are the fairy godmother for others.
Your fairy godmother is also on her way to you. You may not realize it yet, but love, joy, happiness and many magical miracles are on their way to you.
You have the gift of touching the innermost part of each individual and awakening what lies dormant in each of them, simply through your being.
Be as you are, because that is exactly where your magic lies. You may not always see it, but your light can be seen and felt throughout the entire universe.
You have already experienced what an interstellar encounter with someone from another star race feels like.
Be sure you will get to know a few others. The universe will guide you and you will realize and feel that your intuition is getting stronger.
We know that it is not always easy to understand what we want to give you, but as you already know, it will come to you when the time is right.
Know that we are incredibly grateful for what you are doing because it takes courage, strength and an iron will and you have had all of that since the beginning of time.
The message from Atlantis: The Age of Aquarius has already begun and you are all in the middle of it The love you feel will change, it will be deeper than anything you have ever known. You will realize that you will love more than just one person. Because love is what connects you all, just like the water of water that embraces our Mother Earth.
No matter where you are, what you are doing, take a moment to close your eyes, listen to the music and feel the gratitude flowing through your body.
Gratitude that you woke up this morning, gratitude that you can feel and sense this very moment, because you are all in the here and now. Take the time every day to pause for a moment and to realize what you are grateful for that day, because gratitude is the sister of love.
Raise your vibration now because the ascension process has long since begun.
With kind regards your Universe

Rebirth
Since ancient times, humans have been dreamers, storytellers and innovators. Civilizations have come and gone, and all the while Nature has been a constant. Animals, plants, oceans and skies have thrived: co-existing and interconnected. As bears are to fish, fish are to plankton, plankton is to water, water is to life, we are all connected.
As the wild and wise elephants, who use infrasound and seismic communication over long distances, who practice ritual and mourn their loved ones when they have passed, we shall remember this journey and work together for a better tomorrow.
As the skies celebrate the flight of birds, we shall respect our air.
And with the dignity of a tiger, we shall protect these lands, and have the courage to dream and innovate for a healthier and thriving world. We shall tell the story of Mother Earth’s beauty and how we changed our ways to help her flourish once more.

Terreno De Piel (Skin Terrain)
16 York Street
Terreno De Piel, or Skin Terrain, is a bold and insightful commission by Cadillac Fairview, created by Donna Huanca. Huanca’s practice draws particular attention to the skin as the complex interface through which we experience the world around us. Her ‘skin’ paintings – layered on magnified cross-sections of her models’ painted figures photographed during performance – refer directly to the people.

Pixel Cube
25 York Street
Pixel Cube is a 12 x 15 x 18-foot cube made up of 30,000 individually controllable colour LED's suspended in the foyer of 25 York Street. The pixels create a three-dimensional image surface that can update at full video speed. Several different approaches are used to present abstract and real-world imagery on and in the cube. The cube can present material prepared in advance, but it can also be live, and interactive. The cube is a real three-dimensional display surface. By selectively lighting the pixels, dynamic light sculptures can be created and interacted with.

Mobius Curve by Michael Clay.
Michael Clay was an artist in residence in 1982 when he carved the one-sided geometric shape defined by German Mathematician August Mobius in 1858. The entire sculpture was carved from a 15-ton block of limestone.
Michael Clay also worked with his mentor E. B. Cox at the Guild Inn. In 1979 they used air-powered tools to carve the Grizzly Bear that can also be found in the gardens around the Main Walk. Although the sculpture is made of white limestone, it depicts a brown bear.
Musidora - the oldest piece on site that was sculpted in 1875 - is also close by. Sculpted by Marshall Wood it was inspired by a maiden from a Greek poem by Ovid. You can also find Marshall Wood’s marble sculptures worldwide - he carved the statue of Queen Victoria in Ottawa’s Parliamentary Library.

Wildflowers (Bell Box)
Inverleigh Dr. and The Queensway
This organic mural transforms a plain rectangular Bell box into a natural scene complete with blooming wildflowers. A soft turquoise meets teal gradient acts as the backdrop for large dark green, heart-shaped leaves. Thin bright yellow grasses and pale blue flowers are layered on top in a very loose, drawing-like style. Painted in the fall, these flowers demonstrate the act of providing seeds and pollen to insects and birds before winter.
Stacey Kinder, the artist who painted this Bell Box, is an artist, ecologist and conservationist from Toronto with a background in Fine Arts and Ecosystem Management. She hopes to share her passion through her artwork and highlight the natural wildlife in Canadian neighbourhoods.
This mural was inspired by the plants that were growing around the box itself. Stacey’s aim was to celebrate the beings that live in the South Etobicoke neighbourhood and their unique individuality. As different as they are, each plant thrives here and co-exists in the same ecosystem - much like us, the plants and animals are connected and dependent on one another. If one component of an ecosystem is missing, the entire network is at risk of poor health and collapse. This really brings home the idea of neighbourhood love.

Chief Lady Bird is an award-winning Toronto-based artist from Rama First Nation and Moosedeer Point First Nation descent. Her work focuses on foregrounding the experiences of indigenous Women. Aside from her mural work, she is also a well known digital illustrator, children’s book illustrator, community activist and educator. I love the subtle detail of the galaxy in the hair and the way she seamlessly blends the environment and the human form.

Lawrence Underpass Mural
Lawrence Ave underpass (at Weston GO/UP Express Station)
Underneath the railway is a colourful mural on both sides that incorporates flora, fauna and a modern touch with the use of graffiti font.
Artists Alex Bacon (Alexander Lazich) and Que Rockford (Quentin Rockford) have incorporated local flowers and wildlife against an abstract background. The artists use spray paint to give the animals and flowers a soft feel which contrasts with the hard lines and sharp edges of the graffiti-style writing.
Quentin is Anishinaabe and Odawa: the artist’s indigenous background influences his style of painting and ultimately the mural itself. Quentin fashions the images of animals in the style of native art.
The artists have incorporated natural features of the Humber River and Weston, such as great blue herons, saw-whet owl, blue jays, salmon and local flora such as the red trillium.
The mural is a celebration of Rockford’s family and heritage. If you look closely you will see an image of the artist’s great-great grandmother incorporated into the mural’s vibrancy.

Weston Road Flow
34 John Street
This is a multi-panel mural, which references Drake’s Weston Road Flows as the title, that pays homage to Weston as the home of the bicycle, the manufacturing of which was an important industry in Weston.
Nineteen panels stand in single and grouped segments to the right of the Artscape Weston Common building. The panels, whether grouped or single, are spaced evenly and each segment is dedicated to bicycles and their various owners.
The mural, done in spray paint, consists of people set against a backdrop of abstract geometrical shapes. In the mural, each segment is dedicated to a specific scene, whether it be a young girl on a pink tricycle or a couple sharing a bike ride together.
The artist uses the people of the mural to tell a story, depicting them donning time-specific fashion or tying in the bicycle's history in the area. Their posture depicts the mood of the rider or what the bicycle is being used for such as a competitive race or a leisurely ride through a park.
An interesting thing to note is that the artist incorporates different types of bicycles into the design. This can be identified by making note of the handlebars of the bikes.
The mural captures the members of the community of Weston and the diversity of the bikers in the area along with the myriad of uses for the bicycle such as commute, leisure, exercise and sport.

Mateo's practice embraces the diverse cultures and symbols he amassed during his travels. He redefines traditional, iconic, painted carpets by representing ornamented faces of women, who are historically linked to the weaving of carpets. Faces of Tradition is a piece adorned with ancient motifs, as well as tribal and spiritual metaphors painted by the artist, that highlights striking feminine features. Mateo explains that his artwork forces us to question our cultural identity and universal consciousness in a relentless system that pushes for uniformity and homogeneity in contemporary mass culture.

Croft St. at College St.
On both sides of tiny Croft Street are several murals. This particular mural is by Elicser Elliot, a Canadian born artist and a legendary figure in Toronto’s street art community. His work can be found across the city as well as Africa and the Caribbean. His work is known for its organic shapes and layered textures which build to form the figures in his work. His work has been exhibited at the Art Gallery of Ontario and the Royal Ontario Museum and he is also responsible for the iconic “Hug Me” tree on Queen Street West at Soho Street. What I love about this piece is the raw emotion and the message reminding us to “protect our energy”.

Swimming with the Giants
79 Wellington Street West
Commissioned by Cadillac Fairview, this large work on paper by celebrated Inuit artist Tim Pitsiulak was created entirely in pencil and crayons. This beautiful work depicting Beluga whales swimming together was completed in two pieces and merged perfectly. Tim’s life as a hunter and naturalist are reflected in his one-of-a-kind free hand drawings.

From Here to Now
Bayview Station
Throughout Bayview station you’ll find twenty-four pieces. Start exploring and look for black swirls on the floors and walls. At first you might not recognize what they are, but keep moving, when you view these works from the right perspective you’ll have that A-Ha moment! You’ll often see a block of colour near the black illustration, shift your perspective until it starts to look like a square to view the piece from the right angle. Keep your eye out for a needle and spool, a tea cup, a cut apple, slices of lemon, a salt shaker. There are more treasures in store up the stairs.
The visual distortion, known as anamorphosis, shifts with the viewer’s position. The image seems distorted when seen from a frontal position but when viewed from one side or from an angle it resumes normal proportions. For a real treat view the images through the lens of your smartphone: they’ll appear as if in augmented reality – a ladder leaning against the wall, a stepladder, a pocket watch floating in the air, a dog waiting at the top of the stairs for its owner to come home.
The work heightens our awareness about movement and travel through these pedestrian spaces and infuses our experience with a sense of play. The pieces are made from waterjet-cut glazed ceramic tiles laid in the walls and floors, and based on free-hand black line drawings. The artist, Panya Clark Espinal, is a Toronto-based multi-media installation artist who has produced many public art commissions. Her pixelated interpretation of the famous Jack Pine painting by Tom Thomson is installed at Barberry Place, just a block from this station.

Three Disks Sculpture by Menashe Kadishman, High Park: Three yellow disks, about two meters in diameter, connected at a forty-five degree angle, rise out of the ground like the rising sun. This is Three Disks by Menashe Kadishman, an Israeli sculptor who was part of the 1967 International Sculpture Symposium.
Menashe seems to capture the sun in a timelapse as it rises as if out of the earth. In shape and style it is identical to his much larger later work, Hitromemut (or Uprise) in Habima Square, Tel Aviv, completed seven years later. At a distance it is striking, drawing us into the space, its bright metal and clear lines in sharp contrast to the almost rural setting of the Nature Centre with its greenery and wooden fences. There is a tension here, the tilted disks seem to want to fall over. Its cartoonish quality brings a jolt of surprise and joy to the park and the surrounding children's adventure playground.
Menashe Kadishman studied sculpture in the St. Martin School of Art. During the 13 years that he spent in London he refined his Minimalist Conceptual style, a style which focussed on simple geometric forms. He was one of Israel’s most well-known artists and represented the country at the 1978 Venice Biennale.

The Temple by Hubert Dalwood, High Park: This is The Temple by British sculptor Hubert Dalwood, one of seven remaining works completed in 1967 at the International Sculpture Symposium in High Park for Canada's centennial. It is set in a grove of trees, near the forest edge, near a tall catalpa tree.
This is unlike any temple we have seen, but it nevertheless instills in us a desire to enter, to find the inner sanctum. The three meter tall pipes, arranged in a nine by six grid, are slightly misaligned so they appear as a cluster, not in orderly rows. It is possible, if you are a certain size, to slip between them, but notice that while you might enter one row you cannot proceed further, you are allowed in, but only so far, the interior holds its secrets. As you step back, notice the tubes seem slightly rippled. Dalwood was experimenting with the human form, reducing it to its barest essentials. Is this a group of people?
Hubert Dalwood was a leading British sculptor active in the mid-twentieth century. Dalwood's sculptures were mainly of figures often warped and disfigured to suit his intentions but later shifted from figurative subjects, turning to abstract forms, eventually removing all allusions to the human form that remained. His work was exhibited at the 1962 Venice Biennale.

This is a psychedelic mural that brings the audience into another realm of imagination and fantasy. Jason explains that his work reflects reflection, looking in and looking out. Each image is a composite of smaller ones, and the completion of the parts create the whole. This mural uses high realism and beautifully intricate natural figures native to Ontario that create a surrealism-like juxtaposition. A captivating piece that sparks life and excitement in an otherwise ordinary space.

Weston GO/Union Pearson Express Station Mural
1865 Weston Road
In the parking lot next to the Weston GO and UP Express station is a large mural done by Mahmood Popal and collaborator Jesse Albert. The mural is an interesting compilation of imagery of historical aspects of Weston including a lifesize photo of the local library and, of course, the penny farthing bicycle and a box of Kodak film, two items synonymous with Weston’s manufacturing past.
The artist used “rudimentary” pieces created by members of the community throughout the design. Community members of all ages participated through workshops hosted by Popal and Albert by using stencils created using pieces of paper, rags, plastic, and other objects.
He said by “crumpling it up and dipping it, pressing it, [it] makes a mark.” “It makes a pattern and if you start repeating those patterns you start to get an art piece.”
At a closer glance you will notice that the top half of the mural is vinyl and the lower half is painted. There had been a large print affixed to the wall the year prior, but people were tearing at the material. It is interesting to see how the artist continues the patterns of the vinyl using paint.

Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre Ikeda Tower and Garden
6 Garamond Court
Look up! The Sid and Marie Ikeda Tower was erected in 1998 when the JCCC moved to its current location at 6 Garamond Court. It acts as a welcoming beacon to the community and has become one of the JCCC’s signature architectural features. It was designed, in the style of a Japanese andon lantern, by Bruce Kuwabara of KPMB Architects.
As you walk under the tower and closer to the JCCC’s main entrance, on either side of the walkway you find the Ijusha Garden, named in honour of the post-war new immigrant community. This traditional Japanese landscape garden was officially opened in June 1999 by Prince and Princess Hitachi-no-Miya of Japan. It was designed by landscape architect Scott Yonezo Fujita, who first trained in Japan and then received his Canadian credentials at the Ryerson Institute of Technology.
Shin-ijusha is the Japanese word for Japanese immigrants who arrived in Canada after WWII. Fujita-san, through his design and building of this garden, sought to bring the established pre-war Japanese Canadians and the Shin-ijusha communities together to celebrate their common heritage. About 70 children from four different Japanese language schools of Ijusha families volunteered to plant boxwoods in the garden.
On both sides of the garden, you will see Japanese flowering cherry trees. Stepping onto the central sidewalk is like strolling through a landscape in Japan. The garden evokes images of the mountains and seas of Japan. Pine trees shaped like bonsai as aged, large rocks, raked gravel and other trees and bushes are strategically placed after much consideration to create that impression. Textures of hard and soft, large trees and small shrubs, subtle colours in varying shades of green, strong lines and shapes contrasting with more diffuse backgrounds– these elements are all carefully chosen and placed to create a natural harmony. Drawing from traditional Japanese garden elements, there are bamboo fences and a large stone lantern. As the garden is a living installation, it is always evolving and requires constant maintenance. Left to nature, the plants would overgrow and lose their form, weeds would take over and the tranquillity, balance and harmony of the garden would be lost. Today, the Toronto Japanese Garden Club and volunteers tend the gardens.

Untitled by Cheyenne Gold: I migrated to Canada from Trinidad as a child with my parents and siblings and we settled in North Etobicoke, eight minutes away from this mural location. For newcomers, it is very important to keep in touch with elements of home and feeling represented, and I remember not feeling represented and frankly misunderstood as someone from a small island. So I saw this mural as an opportunity to contribute to the visibility of Caribbean culture and I asked myself what would I have liked to see on a wall when I was a young immigrant Caribbean child growing up in this neighbourhood. I chose to depict a recognizably natural Caribbean scene of an island silhouette and a sky full of texture, colour, and contrast through a familiar tie-dye pattern, that would hopefully appeal to children and families. Elements of international travel are also highlighted in this piece to represent the resilient journeys embarked upon by Caribbean migrants.
Caribbean people represent a plethora of cultures, in Trinidad specifically a majority are descendants of Africa and India post-colonialism, and even after centuries of adversity and linear migration, people of the Caribbean diaspora seem to always successfully revive their identity even when “home” is outside of the Caribbean region. Thus, to me, Caribbean migrants, of whom make up the second largest ethnic group of North Etobicoke, are naturally resilient.

This is a multi-panel mural, which references Drake’s Weston Road Flows as the title, that pays homage to Weston as the home of the bicycle, the manufacturing of which was an important industry in Weston.
Nineteen panels stand in single and grouped segments to the right of the Artscape Weston Common building. The panels, whether grouped or single, are spaced evenly and each segment is dedicated to bicycles and their various owners.
The mural, done in spray paint, consists of people set against a backdrop of abstract geometrical shapes. In the mural, each segment is dedicated to a specific scene, whether it be a young girl on a pink tricycle or a couple sharing a bike ride together.
The artist uses the people of the mural to tell a story, depicting them donning time-specific fashion or tying in the bicycle's history in the area. Their posture depicts the mood of the rider or what the bicycle is being used for such as a competitive race or a leisurely ride through a park.
An interesting thing to note is that the artist incorporates different types of bicycles into the design. This can be identified by making note of the handlebars of the bikes.
The mural captures the members of the community of Weston and the diversity of the bikers in the area along with the myriad of uses for the bicycle such as commute, leisure, exercise and sport.

Umbratus
100 Wellington Street West, West Tower
This compelling work by Ric Evans was commissioned by Cadillac Fairview in 2014. Recognized as an inventive colorist and abstract artist, Ric uses a lively colour palette restrained by bold black bars to honour the esthetic of architect Mies van der Rohe, designer of the Toronto Dominion Centre, and represent the TD Centre community.

Weston: Home of the Bicycle Mural
Lawrence Ave and S Station St
This mural is located next to the mural series “Weston: Then and Now” on the same building at The York West Active Living Centre and may appear to be a continuation of the series.
The mural is titled: "Weston: Home of the Bicycle" and celebrates Weston’s history as “the home of the bicycle” due to its connection to the Canadian Cycle and Motor Co. Ltd. The cycle giant’s 232,000-square-foot head office and factory were once located in Weston from 1917 to 1983.
The image shows cyclists on the recreational trail along the Humber River with the 150-year-old Weston CNR Bridge in the background. The mural looks like a typical day on the trail, with the use of brush and paint mimicking a stencil style coming together to form detailed imagery of the foliage surrounding most of the trail as well as its typical occupants.

ezimba is a web site that can apply different imaging effects.
I used one picture for all the effects just for consistency for comparison. The title for each photo consists of the category of the effect and the name of the effect. Some effects would be better used on a different image. There are some effects also that appear to do the same thing in different effect categories.
Ezimba also has a Facebook app, Google Android app, and a free iPhone app. Please note that the free iPhone app puts a small logo on the edited image. You can buy the paid ezimba app and not have the logo.

Portuguese Monument by Unknown Artist, High Park: This marble cross to the west of Colborne Lodge Drive honours Portuguese immigrants to Toronto. Just below the cross itself is the Portuguese crest and a fragment of an epic poem, The Lusiads, by 16th century Portuguese poet, Luis Vaz de Camoes, celebrating the exploits of legendary Portuguese explorers and adventurers. The column is modelled on the landmarks in the form of a cross that Portuguese explorers would erect when they entered new lands. The cross sits on a terrazzo base with a compass rose, recalling the Portuguese navigators who have explored much of the world. See if you can find north!
The cross was erected in 1978 to mark the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Portuguese community in Toronto. On May 13, 1953 the ship Saturnia arrived in Halifax from the Azores, bringing the first Portuguese emigrants to Canada under a new labour agreement. Over the next 25 years, more than 150,000 Portuguese would emigrate to Canada.

Nyctophilia
2 Dennis Ave. / 1038 Weston Rd.
This sculpture, designed by Christian Giroux and Daniel Young and installed in 2014, is a series of ten concrete light poles with multiple street lamps branching off them which illuminate in different colours and patterns at night. The poles are grouped around the street corner and travel down Dennis Avenue along the sidewalk. If you look up, rather than ending predictably in a single street lamp branch at the top of the pole, each pole has two to four branches going in random directions, none of them touching despite their close proximity, like the branches of trees in a forest.
Because street lamps are such a familiar part of our city’s infrastructure, you could easily walk or drive by during the day without realizing you were passing a public sculpture. The street lamps and poles are nearly identical to the poles that line every street in the city, so they are not immediately noticeable except in their strange concentration. In the words of Christian Giroux, they wanted to work with normal, everyday pieces of urban infrastructure - take something that’s kind of invisible and turn it into something extraordinary.
After dark however, the street lamps begin to light up with all different colours in random patterns that change from night to night. The work’s title “Nyctophilia” refers to a preference for night or darkness. Daniel Young points out “there is a romanticism about coloured lights in the city. We are programming this with a sort of personality, so it performs different ways at different times.” In other words, depending on when you visit, the 36 computer controlled multi-colour LED street lamps will light up in different groupings and with different colour patterns, transforming the street corner with one of 20 distinct randomized lighting programs.
What I loved about exploring this piece myself was that element of the unexpected, because it really does blend in with the city until you are under it, but then when you take note of it you see that it really does change the space. Walking under it and experiencing it up close in parts or looking at it as a whole from across the street, it really does change an otherwise bland corner into a magical little world that feels almost intimate.

A Happy Place (Bell Box)
Moynes and The Queensway
This colourful mural was painted on a square Bell Box with mostly teal for the background. On the left, there is a pink girl sitting outside in her neighbourhood, admiring the natural environment through the window. You can also see a few houses and green trees, and a big pink dove-like bird flying overhead.
Yasaman Mehrsa is a Toronto based studio and street artist. Her art is inspired by the connection between humans and nature, storytelling, symbols, and fantasy. She hopes to spread love and peace with the language of art. Yasaman wanted to communicate that Neighbourhood Love means to love yourself, your family, your home, your neighbours, and your neighbourhood.
When designing this piece, she thought about the beauty and peace that one can find in their surroundings. She imagined herself sitting in an outdoor space, admiring nature. She hopes the viewers can imagine themselves being the figure in her painting and feel peace, love and happiness from within. Her goal is to inspire those who see her work to look more carefully at the world around them and discover beauty in everything. As a person as well as artist, she truly loves colours and being colourful. She believes that art is one of the purest forms of communication and that it can connect people on different levels and in diverse ways.

Japan
100 Wellington Street West, West Tower
Completed in 1972, this stunning work by artist John Meredith reflects the abstract esthetic and energy of 1970s New York. Painted from a small sketch 6” x 24”, its size and muscular power capture the energy and essence of a busy urban existence.

Croft St. at College St.
On both sides of tiny Croft Street are several murals. This particular mural is by Elicser Elliot, a Canadian born artist and a legendary figure in Toronto’s street art community. His work can be found across the city as well as Africa and the Caribbean. His work is known for its organic shapes and layered textures which build to form the figures in his work. His work has been exhibited at the Art Gallery of Ontario and the Royal Ontario Museum and he is also responsible for the iconic “Hug Me” tree on Queen Street West at Soho Street. What I love about this piece is the raw emotion and the message reminding us to “protect our energy”.
