Michael H. Cranford Born in Southern California, daydreamer indeed, tropical birds, islands, and lost civilizations. I spent most of my youth in trouble which always gave me time to draw. I paint and draw at my Osa Peninsula Vacation Studio Rental and Lapas Nest Treehouse. I am surrounded by monkeys each day I work, close to the swimming pool, and well taken care of by Blondie. Our Tropical Tree House in Costa Rica is 100% sustainably built from Teac, Bamboo, Melina, recycled wiring and canvas. Built from 3 naturally fallen hardwood rainforest trees on our property near The Lapas Nest Tree House in Costa Rica, Central America.

I do most of my thinking when I'm Painting, backpacking and hiking, Ive climbed many of Colorado’s fourteeners. I would begin to search for a place in the world where I could live with that kind of peace. Islands of the Caribbean had more hurricanes than types of birds, Belize was expensive and offered little culture, so off to Costa Rica, where I bought 55 acres of rain forest on a river, with an amazing ocean view. My childhood prepared me well for living here since I had spent many years playing in the Orange Groves of California and watching Gilligans Island. Today 35 years later, Monkeys, Toucans, Sloths and Parrots drop down around me while I paint, truly inspiring! Vulcan Baru off in the distance while I contemplate my second pot of Costa Rican Coffee, jungle jazz, blues while I paint. I work hard at being a painter and enjoy living in the tropics.
I enjoy being one of many Architects in Costa Rica designing artistic open air sustainably built homes, homes made with Bamboo, Bambu, Eco Lodges, Art, Architecture and house plans, eco home designs, beach hotels, swimming pools and tropical gardens in rainforest.
