Name: Truck art 
Description: Pakistani truck art dates back to the 1920s. It started when companies and people designed logos for their truck so they could tell who's truck was who's. Over time, these logos and designs became more intricate. Designing these logos became so competitive that they turned into a hobby or business for some. Truck drivers can spend up to two years salary decorating their trucks with unique, intricate, colorful patterns. These trucks are also known as "jingle trucks," which is the name the American military in Afghanistan gave them because of the bells strewn across the bumpers.To this day, you can view the pretty colors and designs of these trucks all around Pakistan.
We chose truck art because it is a beautiful, intricate form of art. Truck art adds a lot of color to Pakistan's streets.
