Have you ever seen a Colombian "Chiva"? These super colorful & rustic buses were once commonly used in Colombia for rural transportation, they carried people, livestock and merchandise. However they are now known as a symbol of the Colombian culture and little by little they are being replaced by newer, faster and safer methods of transportation.

Their typical colors are the yellow, blue and red stripes of the Colombian Flag. Like an artist canvas, they can be decorated with swirls and intricate designs. Last year I was challenged to make a special one for a dear client. Little did she know I would make her as the driver! :)
This was a very fun project, full of little details and color! Here are a few pictures of the process:

One of the things I love about Latin America and the Caribbean are the colors that talk about the rhythms of the countries, their wonderful people and personalities!
Happy Weekend!!!
