JILL BLISS  PORTLAND, OR Jill Bliss completed her MFA in Graphic Design at CCA. She's been running her art and design studio in various forms and locations since 2001. Her work has been featured in numerous publications, including YM, Elle Girl, San Francisco, DailyCandy.com, ReadyMade, Budget Living, and Time Out New York.   Web site: http://www.jillbliss.com  'Jill bliss uses everyday items such as ballpoint pens, fabric scraps, paper cuttings, and basic thread to make objects that are unique -- stationery, household items, office supplies, and artwork. Her deceptively simple, nature-inspired style stems from her growing up in a do-it-yourself household surrounded by nature in Northern California, and then going to art school. Since 2001 Jill has been selling her work directly to fans online or via indie boutiques around the world, along the way becoming an indie-business icon. transcending studio art, graphic design or craft culture, her name has become a lo-fi lifestyle brand -- a grass-roots counterpart to Martha Stewart or Ralph Lauren.' - Martin Wong, Giant Robot magazine
