Central America Street Art & Signs

i have a fascination with painted signs and art.  it's not a medium i can do with any sense "goodness" at it.  although that didn't stop me from taking that one painting class back yonder.  still, its not my medium of choice but i am so drawn to it.  so i photograph it.  whatever catches my eye.

here are some painted signs and street art i saw in costa rica and panama.  

what do you think of street art?

do you like it?

is graffiti cool?

i like it when it's pretty.

i don't care for the random name tagging that isn't pretty.

i like the pretty, bring me the pretty.

ok, slurping down my tom kha gai then off to watch handmade nation.  its a documentary about the rise of diy, art, craft, and design in the u.s.a.  and its by faythe levine who i have had a major girl crush on for years.  years, i tell ya.

i'm kinda in love with her.

just so ya know.

nom nom,
