They're everywhere in Montreal but this is not a negative point, quite the opposite... a new work by the duo Waxhead and Cryote done in an alley last year :
The styles of the two artists is very recognizable, Cryote with the wolf in the middle and Waxhead in background. The work is surrounded by two other heads made by Cryote (see below).

WHO
You don't need to read the biographies if you are a regular reader of my posts. They haven't changed since the last post (I'm just trying to correct my English mistakes 😀).
Waxhead
Born in Toronto, Waxhead is street-artist, painter, and creature creator (as he says) now based in Montreal. His style is quite unique, very coloured and detailed. His nickname comes from when younger he painted a dripping head on his school books, Waxhead was born.
