I love street art, especially in the form of murals and creative graffiti. Here are a few photos from the past few days around Rio. The majority are from a wall across the street from the Botanical Gardens. The last one is from a street corner in Ipanema.
I have no idea what the "Rio Amsterdam Connection" is, but the colors are great.
Along the same wall, there is also a yoga/Hindu/mind-body theme.
Leaving the Botanical Garden wall and traveling east, we find the ...
... one-eyed peaceful Martian of Ipanema?
And just in case there was any doubt, here is a geographical reminder. This could be the Las Vegas counterpart to the "Rio-Amsterdam Connection" pictured at the top of this entry.
So Rio apparently has some artists! The next time I visit the Botanical Garden, I plan to take more pictures of the wall. I'll post them here when I do.
