the mural is amazing and inspiring. there's no need to create something garishly colourful to liven up an area. the subtle colour of the murals works with the urban landscape rather than covers it up.]]>

I live next to it and everyday I think of going out with some leave stencils and green spray paint and finishing some trees off.  Dont get me wrong, I really like it!  But I would love some colour as well.]]>

hey, guess what, the neighbourhood is ugly, no need to accent it.]]>

@Sum Guy, you overestimate the honour of some vandals in this city. There's an awesome, beautifully coloured mural in my neighbourhood of space robots (complete with binary dialogue!) that's been severely defaced. 

Anyway, like I said, I love it. It incorporates the material of the pass, for once, rather than trying to hide it. It's subtle and doesn't need to shout -- maybe a metaphor for this city and the neighbourhood: pay attention and you'll find something pleasing to the eye.]]>

Unfortunately because it's not bright there will be grafitti all over it. It's gray and washes in with the background. Good job otherwise]]>

He's using the concrete as the background of his designs which is why he chose grey, white, and black. It's quite clever. Instead of masking the concrete with bright garish colours and designs (sunshine and rainbows) he's incorporating it and making us think about it in a different way. The concrete is his inspiration.]]>

agree with somechick...nice art but the area suffers from an abundance of drab already, it's all gray and run down... sunshine and rainbows would be a nice touch]]>

Love it!  Can't wait to take photographs of it!  I wish they had done this to some of the back alleys off Queen St. or that wall the Bloor subway passes near the Keele station INSTEAD of those brightly colored murals.  I weep/cringe when I think of the art that was once there! (No disrespect to the little people!)]]>

YESS!!! Let's have More grey in an already grey area. This will look absolutely amazing come mid februrary and cheer up the bleak landscape even more. I actually like it when kids paint underpasses or walls in the city. It brings a better sense of community and inspires the kids to be productive citizens. Oh yeah....and kids like COLOUR!!!!!!!!]]>

Nice to see a mural not done collectively by the local grade seven class. Why is no talent 'cute' when you're a kid?]]>

Very nice.
Brings a splash of class to an area that's been sorely lacking for some reason or another.]]>

I've been photographing the underpass as Richard has been working on it.  I have some <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/funkaoshi/sets/72157605331828913/">photos up on Flickr</a>. (I have some <a href="http://ramanan.sivaranjan.com/mural/details/">detail shots</a> online as well, which hopefully show off how cool the concrete actually is.)  It's a cool mural.  Nice to see something that doesn't feature rainbows and children.]]>
