Meet the maker: Ballpoint



What do you make?

Illustrated greeting cards, prints, and hopefully soon some screen-printed carry bags!

Why would you buy something handmade?

Quality, originality, and no middle-men!

Where else might we see your work?

You can find it at Portico in Lyttleton, on Felt, and have a browse at www.ballpoint.co.nz

How did you get into your craft?

I just arose out of the desire to do something with my illo's, and to make art more accessible, less elitist.

Do you have formal training or qualifications in your craft?

I have a certificate in design, and a diploma in photography.

Is there a philosophy behind your work?

Give greeting cards!

What are your favourite materials, tools and/or processes?

I work in ballpoint pen - I love how simple and everyday it is.
