I met Chris at the Goodfoot First Thursday Art Opening last week (great art still up). I commented on his clothing because he had the heart on the t-shirt and the hoodie. He also has a new design on the crest area of the hoodie which is a “OR” symbol with the heart in the O. Anyway, turns out he invented the ubiquitous “Heart in Oregon” stickers you see all over Portland.

From his website:

Unemployed, exhausted of benefits, zero job prospects, I sat outside on a cold, wet morning in Portland Oregon enjoying a hot cup of coffee.  I pondered my future and wondered what the hell I was going to do.

10 years since I migrated west, I rode a wave made of silicate, software, and IP packets; but wave had crashed and for the first time I wondered if I would have to return home, my parents house, not even a house I lived earlier in life?

No! My heart is here. My Heart is in Oregon!"...read more at the site
