Certainly I wanted Tony mon conjoint to walk with me in the Faubourg (neighborhood) St. Jean Baptiste. Walking down rue Saint Claire we saw a man working on this artwork above his garage. We asked if we could take photographs and did so, then talked to him. He is Sylvain Michaud.
He was very kind, très gentil, to come down from his ladder and chat with us, to tell us he has spent hundreds of hours already on this project.
Then he closed the garage door beneath the present work in progress -- metal flowers of recycled soft drink cans -- to show us his previously completed project.
His name, again, this artist in Faubourg St. Jean Baptiste, is Sylvain Michaud. He has a little shop with other examples of his art at 730 Sainte Claire, Québec.
All these photos, by the way, were taken by Tony Weisman.
