April 2019 - Toronto ON
On the side of the St. George Hotel.
On the west-facing side of the 14-storey tower, the St. George hotel commissioned Toronto street artist Jerry Rugg (a.k.a. BirdO) to paint a giant owl mural.
It took BirdO 10 days to paint the 10-storey-high mural on the building’s west wall. The surreal geometric bird borrows some of its angular features from the surrounding art deco buildings, and its sunglasses reflect the Toronto skyline at sunset.
Only 10 days to paint? That's amazing. I really like it.
ReplyDelete...I saw BirdO at work in Maui last February.
ReplyDeleteFabulous mural Jackie, love the Toronto skyline on the glasses. Thanks for participating.
ReplyDeleteOwls are so intriguing! I love the idea of images in the eyes.
