Graffiti in Budapest Hungary

Graffiti in Budapest Hungary

Graffiti covers the streets of Budapest, the capital city of Hungary. Everywhere you walk here you are greeted by the messages of VAS, TISH, KASHMIR and other notorious artists of the night. The graffiti in Budapest is mostly bombed tags and quickly scrawled messages with spray paint or marker or really nice hall of fame style painting that appears to be commissioned or with the permission of the land owner. The shear street-side graffiti coverage is awesome.

Panama City Buses

Panama City Buses

One of the most colorful elements of Panama City are the buses which fly down the streets. These are no ordinary city buses, as they are painted from stem to stern with beautiful scenes of women, battles, movies, and loved ones. It is my impression that the drivers are permitted to customize their buses how they want to: so there are buses with shark fins on top, with paintings of beautiful women, and portraits all over them. These painted buses are awesome.

One of the most colorful aspects of Panama City are the public buses. You can sit for hours just watching them pass, and talking about them. These buses really are a moving art gallery

Indigenous Boruca Crafts of Costa Rica

Indigenous Boruca Brunca Crafts and Masks of Costa Rica

The below masks were carved by a Costa Rican indigenous tribe called the Boruca or the Brunca. They inhabit the southern part of Costa Rica and many people of their communities live off of carving masks, painting, and making traditional crafts to be sold to tourists to Costa Rica.

Graffiti in Portugal Photographs

Graffiti in Portugal Photos

These Photographs are of graffiti in various places in Portugal. I found Portuguese Graffiti to be amongst the best in the world. I got off of the bus in Lisbon and my jaw immediately dropped. The street art is beyond good here- its colors are bright and its message poignant.
