+ I want to say a huge, huge thank you to everyone who is kind. I’ve been lucky to have had very few bad experiences since starting this blog, but in being so few, they do tend to stick with me. But overall this blog brings me a lot of joy and comfort, and to all of you who are so incredibly kind, I remember you and your words made a positive impact in my life.

Thank you for listening to what was supposed to be a one sentence blog update and turned into a cheesy thank you 😅 Here is a bonus little guy for your troubles. Everyone have a fantastic day and a happy pride month! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Beautiful Painted Staircases Inspired by Andean Textiles Transform the Hills of Lima, Peru

In the rolling hills of Lima, Peru, colorful murals coat the sloping staircases that forge paths through the city’s diverse neighborhoods. An effort to beautify and celebrate the cultural history of each district, the painted stairs form part of the city’s endeavor to recognize art as an essential part of community development. Peruvian artist Xomatok took part in this tremendous project, translating his artistic vision onto 13 stairways in the hilly footpaths of Alisos de Amauta.

In collaboration with local residents, the artist transformed the plain stairs of the neighborhood with geometric designs inspired by the vibrant motifs commonly found in handwoven Andean textiles, especially traditional shawls or blankets called llicllas.
