Unnatural beauty in Portland, May 5 - 14, 2016

The last post, I focused on some of the natural beauty of plants here in bloom in spring time in Portland.  Today, I focus on some of the man made (or unnatural) beauty - artwork in many places in the neighborhood.  Remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

People put the artwork on many things - and it all adds to the aura of the neighborhood.

They paint on fences.



They paint on garages.




They paint on walls.






They paint to advertise.



They hang artwork in the trees; it is electric, so daytime it is white, but at night it is colored.



 They even decorate along sidewalks and street intersectons.



It all means many interesting things to see when walking around Portland.  Oh, I almost forgot - they also have chickens in their yards.



All part of the charm of Portland.
