I'm taking part today in
Monday Murals hosted by Sami.
This whimsical silhouette mural by an unidentified artist
is found on the side of a building which houses
a mechanical services business in my city of Edmonton.
It's a great little landmark in the area!

Second mural I've seen on a blog today. Lovely.
...lighter than air!
Not what I'd picture on a building of that kind, but it is cute and gets people talking.
That's a whimsical mural. Love it!
I've seen similar ones on other buildings. I like the floating ....
Love this one.
☺️ C'mon world! More of this! Wadda we want...WHIMSY! When do we want it...NOW! 🤗
Softens up the stark modern lines, and perhaps gives a bit of joy too...I'm thinking!
Banksy style, which I love!
Cool! I have also seen this work in Amsterdam, but there it has been painted over (by accident).
It's giving Bansky, and I'm here for it...
Love that they used the side of the building for it!
XOXO
I can see someone giving directions now....go past the girl being taken away by balloons and turn left :-)
Very cool and well done. Happy Victoria Day to you.
@ Jackie McGuinness -- Yes, Banksy without the politics (or the monetary value)!
@ Bertiebo -- I'm learning from your comment and Bob's (above) that this is not, perhaps, a unique mural image!
@ Sixpence Notthewiser -- Yes, Banksy without the politics or monetary worth!
@ Kathy G -- Exactly! That's how I think of it.
@ CAAZ -- And Happy Vicky Day to you too, fellow Canuckian.
A hot air balloon ride is still on my bucket list.
I believe that may be the Coppertone girl in the ad. Do you remember her? Glad to see she's getting more out of life these days.
There really are some very talented people out there.
I’d have trouble painting that in a canvas let alone on the side of the wall
A good one, Debra.
I really like this one.
@ Ms. Moon -- Hahahaha, yes, I do remember her and I like your comment!
Was Bansky there?
@ Granny Annie -- I bet the building owner wishes he had been! That wall would be worth a fortune!
A visual moment that's lighter than air!
Dear Debra, beautiful photo of this lovely mural and sky.
Adorable...Love it !!
Love this!
What a sweet find, Debra! :)
Have a great week! :)
How "Banksy-esque"! Too bad the the balloons weren't different colours. Happy Victoria Day, Debra.
@ Tundra Bunny -- Yes, multicoloured balloons would look nice. At noon, I heard the 21-gun salute for Victoria Day at the Alberta Legislature. That takes care of my celebrating, LOL.
