August 3rd - August 30th, 2024
Stuart has been fascinated with pens and pencils for as long as he can remember. Whenever he would get the urge to spend money, it would end up being a pen or pencil coming home with him. On a trip to New Mexico in 2005 he visited a facility that made pens and pencils. He purchased one and thought to himself, “I could make these”. Returning home he purchased the equipment and began making the objects of his fascination. Like many first-time makers, his first few pens were not that good. He has held onto several of those firsts. Stuart has used a wide variety of materials, including wood, acrylic, coffee beans, pine cones, corn cobs, brass, aluminum, and more.
His personal collection of pens and pencils have come to number in the hundreds.
