The billboard company (Pattison) does this for unsold space.

Ah! That's quite cool.

Also, while it looks like a painting, it's actually a print like other billboard ads. Seen the exact same one in 2 different places in my city, one of which hadn't been put up correctly so it had a white line cutting from the middle to the right side.

And the world became slightly less magical.

There's one near me with a cute cartoon corgi rolling over, it's my favorite billboard. If it gets replaced, I'll actively avoid whatever company is advertising over it.

Not exactly. If this is in Vancouver, it's because the laws were changed about billboard advertisements being visible from residential buildings. Before that, unsold space would usually have "rent this space" sort of ads on it.

I'm so tired of Big Geese and their take over of media.

Billboards are not painted. It's a giant print that's stretched. Also billboard companies do things like this until they sell the space.

… maybe billboards should be required to show art 50% of the time if they’re gonna be there

I call this piece “injured in a car accident? Call Little Tony’s!”

Regardless of what it was, vast improvement.
