The Ballot Box

This was a teaching resource designed to educate

students in 1996 about the new way of MMP voting.

After the campaigns release

then-Prime Minister Jim Bulger later said:

"I think cartoons were the wrong way to go about it".

The Legendary, and now sadly departed Murray Ball

- creator of classic NZ cartoon 'Footrot Flats' -

and myself had been asked to draw material.

Tearaway Magazine was a free newspaper delivered to all secondary school students throughout Aotearoa in the 1990's.

It stood up for a lot of things that were 'uncool' at the time - suicide prevention, equality, human rights etc...

I was proud to work for them.

This is some of what I drew while there, along with one of the School Journals I illustrated, and some LTSA work.
