Question:  How tough are the controls on graffiti in Colombia in general?

Over here, street art is not such a big phenomenon. Even though the city has lots of free spaces for graffiti and advertising, there is no rigorous control on this art form and its diverse manifestations. In this way, the street art scene is very peaceful. - Excusado Printsystem

I love this last piece.  The colors just bring life to the drab looking wall.  

Anyone have any personal interpretations of the images?

Colombia

Welcome to the beautiful country of Colombia located in South America.

Coffee Wood House?

Deep in Orosi Valley is a home created  completely out of coffee wood. Upon arrival, a cute little old man greeted me with a huge smile on his face.  Unlike most of the natives I encountered, he surprisingly spoke perfect english.  Inside his house he carves figures and other objects of out coffee wood and displays them to be purchased by visitors.

Hotel Lys

I stayed at a Hostel in Montezuma, Costa Rica called Hotel Lys.  Throughout the hostel were hundreds of paintings.  The owners have even launched a project known as Libre Universidad de Montezuma. This rapidly evolving concept is based on communication through artistic expression. 

This painting was  the door of my room.

Cartago, Costa Rica

I spent 5 out of 8 days volunteering at an orphanage in Cartago.  On my walk to the orphanage each day I passed by numerous painted walls.  There are my favorites.

Pura Vida

I am so in love with Costa Rica.  I went to a beach town for part of my trip called Montezuma.   It had a bohemian, hippie type flair and was amazing. Everyone there is so creative.  I bought this bracelet made by hand, so pretty.
