Here my entry for the CCC's Street Art Contest #120 with this beautiful lettering done in early summer by Senck, Time is Gold, located right at the entrance of the Graffiti Alley in Montreal.

Voici mon entrée pour l'édition de cette semaine du CCC's Street Art Contest #120 avec ce magnifique lettrage réalisé au début de l'été par Senck, Time is Gold, situé juste à l'entrée de la Graffiti Alley à Montréal :

WHERE

At the beginning of the Graffiti Alley in Montreal, right next to the store ArtGang, clothing and Street Art. And I think now there is also a selection of beers from Quebec microbreweries.

Senck

Not much information about Senck as his Instagram account is unfortunately private. Based in Montreal, he is a member of the Art Gang crew. And he often paints with his friend Alex Snipes who is just on the other side of the wall.

Peu d'informations sur Senck car son compte Instagram est malheureusement privé. Basé à Montréal, il est membre du Art Gang crew. Et il peint souvent avec son ami Alex Snipes qui se trouve juste de l'autre côté du mur.

A few close-ups of this lettering called Time is Gold, so true. There is another mural by that name in Montreal, the last project of Scan done in 2017 at Collège Ste Marie before his death from a nasty disease 🙏. I'll present all this to you soon. And this clock that reminds us irrevocably of the passage of time.

Quelques zooms sur cette murale appelée Time is Gold ce qui complètement vrai. Une autre murale porte ce nom à Montréal, le dernier projet de Scan au Collège Ste Marie avant sa mort emportée par une vilaine maladie 🙏 . Je vais vous présenter tout cela bientôt. On comprend alors tout le sens de cette phrase. ET cette horloge qui nous rappelle irrémédiablement le passage du temps.

At the corner of the alley, there are two other letterings, one made by Snawk and the other as I said above by Alex Snipes. / FR : Au coin de la ruelle, on retrouve deux autres lettrages, un fait par Snawk et l'autre comme je le disais plus haut par Alex Snipes.

Snawk

Little information Snawk who also seems to paint on trains with his Instagram description "Rails and concrete delights". Cool lettering with this cutout in the center with a different color scheme and style.

Peu d'information Snawk qui semble aussi peindre sur les trains d'après sa description Instagram : "Rails and concrete delights". Cool lettrage avec cette coupure au centre avec une palette de couleur et un style différent.

The Truth is... ". These pictures were taken during my second visit because during the first one, the lettering was in progress. The artist wasn't there but itMs always interesting to see the evolution of the work.

"The Truth is...". Ces photos ont été prises lors de mon deuxième passage car lors du premier, le lettrage était en cours de réalisation. L'artiste n'était pas là mais toujours intéressant de voir l'évolution de l'œuvre.

I take the opportunity of this post to come back to A.G. Crew, collective founded in 2006 by a group of friends and very active in Montreal. They opened a store in 2010 to sell clothes but also prints and originals of artists from the Street Art with the art gallery. I really like their different projects, it animates the art scene in Montreal.

Je profite de ce post pour revenir A.G. Crew, collectif fondé en 2006 par un groupe d'amis et très actif à Montréal. Ils ouvrirent une boutique en 2010 pour vendre des vêtements mais aussi des impressions et des originaux d'artistes provenant du Street Art avec la galerie d'art. J'aime beaucoup leurs différents projets, cela anime la scène artistique de Montréal.

You don't like lettering ? I like everything related to lettering like calligraphy or typography. As you said, very talented artists.

Honestly enough I don't like vandalism. I totally understand about outlaw art. While I may be impressed at somebody's artistic talent the fact that sometimes these artists place their work on private property really hinders the support for their work.

If their work is on a sanctioned piece of property? Absolutely I would love to continue supporting artists. Especially being able to admire phenomenal art. And it is really a shame that some of these positions are just going to eliminate that art.

Lettering? Lol not a big fan.

Great lettering! I like the blue letter that looks kind of like a gear inside. Very cool.

Yes I like the difference in style in this lettering as a sketch in the middle.
