I'm taking part today in
Monday Murals hosted by Sami.
This charming mural was created by vignettestm,
an Edmonton art and design company
specializing in public art, art infrastructures
and branded installations.
Fittingly, it is found on the side of
Tirecraft Auto Centre in West Edmonton.

Wonderful. I wish we had more mural art like this. There’s a nearby town nearby known for it. Maybe time for a bus ride.
...what we call a wrench, some call a spanner!
Perfect title: Monkey Wrench. LOL!
"Tirecraft Auto Centre where Monkeys do All the Work!"
Love that mural.
I could not explain why, but that picture reminds me greatly of my brother.
Another fabulous mural! Thank you for sharing.
On brand and beautiful?
Perfection.
XOXO
Cute mural. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Debra.
That is so cute!
And it's perfectly fitting. There are a whole, whole bunch of those lately.
That primate looks like he/she means business. I'd like to meet her/his tattoo artist.
Love the mural, but I have to admit I don't really like monkeys.
๐ฑ OMG! The tense discussions this mural has created between me and Hubby!
I knew his first comment was gonna be, "that's not a monkey wrench! ๐ง It's a double open-end wrench!" Sigh. ๐
We compromised on it IS a monkey's wrench. ๐คญ
We both loved the artwork with the varied patterns to get hypnotized by. ๐ต๐ซ
The continuing discussion has two facets. 1. Why is the monkey's pinky raised? Is it because this place supports the elegant work done by grease monkey mechanics? Good advertising! ๐
2. We hope this business is not signaling a willingness to throw a monkey wrench into the works...questionable advertising. ๐ฌ
In other words, thank you Debra, for a stimulating morning! ๐
@ Cleora Borealis -- I'm not competent to voice an opinion on any of those issues, LOL! Although I did previously notice and appreciate the raised pinky finger as adding a humorous "touch of class!"
Lovely mural.
I love the monkey with her wrench. Makes me want to learn tire repair and replacement.
Love,
Janie
Wisually beautiful. I don't know the target group of it, so can't say anything about its effectiveness....
I followed the link to this artist. Thanks! Such diversity...I just visited the U of A structure (letters) last week as we went to the Debaters at Horowitz theatre. Hilarious!
Monkey + wrench... ha-ha! I wonder what they would put on the side of a gynaecologist's office?
What a cute mural, Debra!!!
@ DB Stewart -- Oh, I LOVE "The Debaters" and I've always wanted to go to a taping but I've never made it to one yet!
@ Yorkshire Pudding -- The mind boggles!
Most appropriate advertising/art mural! It definitely catches the eye!
It's a good one, Debra.
I love it, a very cool mural.
That is an interesting mural.
Great mural. Not sure if I'd patronize a Tire store that has a monkey with a wrench for a logo.
It's perfectly sited!
Trรจs amusant et crรฉatif :-)
Une excellente publicitรฉ pour le magasin de pneus, comme Bibendum, le bonhomme de Michelin.

Great job. Murals take the hard edge off city streets.
I thought how much I love it before I read the text. Tire Store - love it even more. Perfect.
This mural is well done!
What a cool mural! I love the expression on that chimp's face, as if he's got some secret he just can't resist telling.
Oh I love that monkey and his wrench. Or I guess in Edmonton you would call it a spanner? Very enjoyable. Thank you aloha!
I like it ๐
He is adorable!!
Wow! This is beautifully done. I like seeing the street art from other places. Have a good day.
