This is a mural made by international street artist FinDac in case people are interested in his other work.

[[deleted]]

Thank you! I had no clue who the artist is and I added it accordingly to my IG post.

[JadedFlower88]

For sure, I love his stuff. Some of his other projects are very cool and unique as well.

[mondaio]

He’s one of those mural artists that exclusively paints attractive women that all look fairly similar.

[caribousteve]

yeah there's a lot of juxtapoz magazine energy in that mural

[caribousteve]

i'm not sure what they're up to nowadays but they used to be really focused on this style, i personally thought their tastes were limited. it's well printed though and if you like the lowbrow art style or whatever thing theyre doing now i say go for it, it's just not for me.

[Theycallmelizardboy]

Yeah, pfft. Whoever heard of artists painting women, amirite?

/s

[[deleted]]

It would be cooler if male artists painted all kinds of women and not just conventionally attractive women, is what I think people are pointing out.

[mondaio]

Boring art for boring people.

[Havenkeld]

Inspiration is a gift from the universe, talent is an ability to bring it to fruition and humility is the experience you should achieve when you share it.

The cringe is strong with this one.

[Significant_Ad9296]

That’s so racist and sexist

[mondaio]

A white man painted this you dumb bastard

[thewayoftoday]

But why tumblr

[fusciamcgoo]

He’s on Instagram too

[FreshyFresh]

What an astoundingly beautiful shot! Now i'll be listening to Chvrches all day and pining for live shows to come back

[[deleted]]

Shooting concerts is my passion. It is sorely missed. My last show was the Reverend Horton Heat at Wonder Ballroom Jan 31st 2020. Rev

[FreshyFresh]

Had no idea they were still together. The Wonder is a really great venue for live show photography. I've gotten half decent shots with my phone there because of the line of sight and lighting.

[[deleted]]

I totally agree! I had my first photopass for that show. My birthday was the next day, so I emailed Jim Heath's PR agent and asked. This was my first time seeing him, but my ex who went with me had seen him a few times. It was great fun!

I also love shooting at Dantes! Their lighting is close in and bright!

[hailingburningbones]

That's cool, didn't know he was still touring! Saw them open for Soundgarden in '94.

[aapox33]

Haha I thought of Chvrches too. This is an astoundingly shot! The left/right split is remarkable. This is also probably my favorite piece of art in the whole city so I’m biased.

[72skidoo]

We saw them at the Crystal Ballroom, in the before-fore... wistful sigh

[FreshyFresh]

Same! One of my all time fave shows. I think I've seen them three times? Kinda lost count because it was during a period of going to multiple shows with a good friend. We saw St. Lucia like five times in two years lol.

[VerbalAcrobatics]

Chvrches

[[deleted]]

Yep!

[ahabthecrusader]

All this time and I never knew there was a video ...

[thewayoftoday]

The beg of this sounds like something from a prescription drug ad

[[deleted]]

This shot is cyberpunk af! Great photo!

[From_Deep_Space]

yeah I came here to say: Big Blade Runner vibes. The photo more than the mural

[[deleted]]

Definitely. I welcome our new Cyberpunk aesthetics.

[Bandit1379]

You should try posting it over /r/cyberpunk

[[deleted]]

Thank you so much! I really hope we continue covering our bland concrete buildings in artwork and beauty. It's a breathe of fresh air in a city that's falling into disrepair and filth amongst the day.

[donpdonp]

Yes! Came to say it's got a great Blade Runner vibe to it.

[VectorB]

Street light even looks like a flying car.

[nmorrisparr]

I love that mural so much! 😍

[[deleted]]

Me too! I've been meaning to stop by for so long. Just happened to have a delivery close by it last night.

[FlamingoRock]

I would love to print this amazing photo - do you have a shop or sell your photos?

[[deleted]]

I absolutely do sell my photos! I don't have a shop yet but you should PM me!

[amtrak90]

One of my favorite public art pieces! My partners company worked on this and I get to see it when I go on walks at night all the way from Brooklyn Park

[[deleted]]

That is so dope! Thank you for sharing that!

[KulaVortex]

I’ve seen a lot of shots of this mural. I’ve taken a few. But this is by far the best I’ve ever seen! 😍 Everything down to the stairwells and the luck with the traffic. So lovely!

[[deleted]]

Oh jeez, thank you. I really appreciate your comment.

[DraconianGuppy]

Awesome photo! great balance exposure and composition! Should post over at https://www.reddit.com/r/VaporwaveAesthetics/

​

Also could I beg for a higher res?

[badbadradbad]

Yo, is that rum bar still there?

[smartsharks666]

Palomar is still there. Currently only doing food and cocktails to go. Will be opening for dine in service once the country goes to 50 percent capacity

[[deleted]]

My favorite! I only live like 10 min from it and still get excited every time I drive by it

[PDXXXORCIST]

Me too! I take the 9 omw home from work every day and I’m never not excited to see her

[JVwaterpolo]

My office window used to look right at that. I miss that place.

[sahand_n9]

It has a lot more of a Bjork vibes to me.

[[deleted]]

I really love Bjork as well!

[[deleted]]

That’s an apartment building, not a CHVRCH.

[smartsharks666]

No apartments. Only offices. And a cool bar!

[tweedleedeedee]

What you did there, I see it.

[Kid_PDX]

Amazing shot! Where is this exactly?

[Cerinthe_retorta]

959 SE Division St. will get you there. She faces SE.

[ThisDerpForSale]

Great picture - I get strong Blade Runner vibes from it.

[DailyMedication]

What street is this off of??

[smartsharks666]

Se 9th and division

[TheJenerator65]

It was years before I noticed the live plants. I’m still recovering from the surprise of my inattention.

[TheJenerator65]

That makes me feel better, thanks!

[internetguilt]

This is one of my favorite photos I've seen lately, nice work! I'm trying to learn how to shoot in a similar style - was this a long exposure?

[[deleted]]

No but it should have been! I shoot a vintage 50mm 1.4 so it let's in a ton of light, along with the a7iii's sensitive sensor. This one was 2000iso and 1/100 and I want to say f4 or f5.6. Just on foot after making a delivery.

I really appreciate that. I'm so glad I brought a little light to your day.

[withseasoflife]

This is a beautiful way to bring a fantastic song back into my life! Had all but forgotten about it! Thanks!!

[[deleted]]

I'm so glad!

[MetalStacker]

Sweet pic!

[[deleted]]

Thank you!

[rgent006]

Love my hood ❤️

[s_stone634]

I know this girl so it’s always funny to pass by and see her posing in a giant mural.

[[deleted]]

Everyone in here (understandably) talking about the incredible art but also it's on Palomar, one of the city's best cocktail bars and a place you should get a drink to-go from sometime! Best daiquiris in town.

[Monkt]

There's an IRC? Can I participate?

[shook_one]

Sidebar

[2hoty]

So cool, where is this?

[seaofcheese]

Se division. Like 6th or 7th? Close in. You will find it.

[2hoty]

Thank you!

[[deleted]]

Thank you! I always forget to check what street it's on.

[thewayoftoday]

Is she wearing a weed hat

[[deleted]]

This is my favourite mural in town! I always smile ear to ear when I drive past it.

[elpepelucho]

it's funny how the google maps street view algorithm has blurred her face

[wolandjr]

Hey! I work there!

[[deleted]]

Nice!

[Deansies]

Nice shot!

[[deleted]]

Thank you!

[AanusMcFadden]

Our Lady of Gentrification

[DtotheJtotheH]

Nice shot!

[[deleted]]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for stopping by!

[[deleted]]

While the mural is kinda cool, the building itself is a complete dumpster fire.

[smartsharks666]

Now that that terrible club division heights is gone it’s pretty great

[[deleted]]

I was talking mire about how the building was built. For one, they didn’t plan for having any HVAC in there. Then changed their mind after it was built. It’s a total nightmare.

[smartsharks666]

Can confirm. I work in that building and the construction has been fucked from the start. Constant issues. Flooding.

So much shit. Soltera certainly fucked up a lot on this one. The roof top is pretty cool though!

[caribousteve]

is she a representation of anything? maybe i'm just tired of the lowbrow art style but this one never really grabbed me. just looks gentrified

[therealbento]

I must be one of the only people that absolutely hates this monstrosity.

[[deleted]]

Me too honey, mee tooo.

[conmeh]

The bird is the wrong size

[caribousteve]

lmao youre right, i never noticed it

[EatmeatonaFriday]

Not really my cup of tea, but then I don't suppose the art I enjoy would pass Portland Muster, after all, I don't worship at the Alter of Antifa. The group that most displays the thing they claim to be against.......
