Not everyone has access to an easel and oils, photography equipment and the like. Truck and bus drivers in Pakistan manage to find their own way to express themselves - by using their livelihood as their canvas. Landscapes, scenes from folklore and Pakistani heritage are most usually depicted on every surface.While the vehicle may end up looking like quite an eye-sore, I find it significant that people to whom 'good' art is of no consequence still find an outlet of expression and, I would call it art for the reason that it is a means for the common man to exercise talent and perpetuate culture.
