Founded in 2008, ecopop is an idea farm that
lives at the intersection of ecology and pop

brands that make a positive global impact.
We heart Land in Portland, Oregon not only for carrying some of our limited edition prints in their super rad retail store/gallery and online at Buy Olympia but also because they turn us on to so many great artists.
Depending on how you look at it, dabball is an artfully addictive game that allows players to purchase featured art directly from their iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. Or, it’s the world’s first digital art gallery that sells museum-quality artist prints by way of art-inspired dexterity games.

At its heart, dabball is a mobile art gallery that showcases up-and-coming and world-renowned artists, including Portland’s Brooke Weeber, and former Guided by Voices frontman Robert Pollard, and invites you to browse the art digitally as well as purchase museum-quality artist prints for your wall, in one of three sizes, directly from your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.
