Street Poet Crafting Words on Alberta

Tim Trautmann @timtrautmann.com · Apr 30 Northeast Alberta & 21st, Portland, Oregon, US

Till Gwinn, a local street poet, concentrates intently as he types on a vintage white typewriter at his outdoor workspace on Northeast Alberta Street in Portland. Wearing a pale blue button-down shirt and tortoiseshell sunglasses, he sits with legs spread apart while putting finishing touches on a custom poem for a waiting customer. The warm afternoon light illuminates his focused expression while a burgundy pickup truck provides an atmospheric backdrop to this quintessential Portland street scene.
