  2. Very Latin America. Now you made me think of Diego Rivera's amazing work, some of which I had the privilege of admiring in Mexico City.

  9. Oh, I am so glad you decided to go ahead with Monday Mural... I'll have to remember to come by. This one - I agree with JM, very Latino - is awesome... a real work of art with a laudable message.
