    Yes it is. I love their bright paintings of nature all over, like on the VW bus you saw! If you are ever in the Monteverde region you should look up Marvin Rockwell an American who settled down there with a Quaker community, his stories are marvelous and his courage and generosity of spirit is so rare. He is 93 after all. I have a post on when we met him. But seeing him tell his stories is another experience altogether!
