Artist Karl Addison is hard at work on this new mural somewhere in the heart of the Central District. Have you seen it?

I found his work via Twitter where he broadcasts as @partybots. You can learn more about his work at http://partybots.org/

fail whale?
Looks like it's inspired by twitter's "fail whale"

Or
maybe it's a hipster version of a Wyland whale wall. Is an ironic t-shirt and souvenier gallery far behind?

where did "hipster" come from? this wall is about 1/3 of the way done - it will have the squids put in at the end of it once we get the whale done. stoked to be painting in CD.

Loving it! Nice Job Karl. Why is it that when anything interesting gets done by someone under 40 it gets labeled 'hipster'? I'm going to go out on a limb here and just label this mural 'awesome'.
