Puerto Vallarta’s Vibrant Street Art

The stunning new street art mural is one of the many pieces in downtown Puerto Vallarta.

Street art transforms a blank canvas of a building’s wall into a work of art. Misael Iván López Martínez is the talented artist who created the impressive mural. López Martínez is originally from Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, but has been living in Puerto Vallarta for the last 9 years.  While the stunning art mural has no title, life and death as seen by the Mexican culture are the featured topics. Also, several other colorful and inspiring street murals are found throughout downtown Puerto Vallarta, too.
