Saturday Street Art: Gorgeous Graffiti of Rio de Janeiro
Thanks so much to "Grams" for compiling this series for me. Although not all of the graffiti in Rio is gorgeous, I'm featuring some that is, on Saturdays for your viewing pleasure. If you see some fantastic graffiti in Rio that you think I should feature, send a pic!

Great pics. I've always liked the tasteful street art in Rio. We had an artist, Joel Bergner, come to the school where I teach (The American School of Brasilia). He had some wonderful ideas about ways to the look/façade of poorer areas can transform the local's pride (I understand a whole Rio Favela was painted recently)?
Congratulations for yet another great piece. I have always admired the graffiti in Rio. There is one red flower with a twisting vine for a stem, it is just beautiful.
