Hand painted signs in Oaxaca, Mexico.

Walking around south central Mexico in the state of Oaxaca i found these painted advertisements and signs beautiful. Instead of using digital mediums that i am used to seeing in Toronto, these signs are hand painted often using stencils. The colours and composition often seem accindental which makes them all the more interresting. For me, this is graphic design and typography at its finest.
