Portland’s Pearl District is a local neighborhood bustling with trendy restaurants and pricy art galleries. It’s not uncommon to see a stylish young adult with a coffee in one hand and a dog leash in the other. During the first Thursday evening of each month, local artists congregate in the Pearl District to sell their art amongst live musicians and foot carts. Recently, a marketing tool was spotted as the main feature in one artist’s work.
