1. is there a larger one available?

2. I find this mural incredibly cool. Who made it?

3. I wanted to point out that the Old Brewery Mission also has a centre for homeless women, the largest in Canada: http://www.oldbrewerymission.ca/patricia.html It is in the Centre-sud (near Radio-Canada and the Gay Village).

   I had the privilege of visiting it (from outside) while interpreting at a meeting about the challenges of helping homeless women in both the short and long term.

   Yes, it is a most intriguing mural, and breaks through the grey institutional space. I love such interventions that bring “ugly” buildings alive.

4. Hi, I had full-size ones a couple of years ago, don’t know where they went. But I have quite a few close-ups of the details available here:

   I’m preparing them to be e-cards in a site I am building.
