The Pint Series is a project created by Matthew Barton, consisting of different series of printed postcards made by designers from all over the world.
These series go from 3 to 5 images each, they’re 6″x4″, and the price is US$20 plus shipping.
The nice part about this is that you can send your own series, anf it gets chosen, they send you a printed copy for free, and a set of 100 limited editions get put up for sale. Also you get US$500 plus a donation made on your behalf for US$250 to the As Green As It Gets foundation.
I already sent in my “Sensuality Series”, so if you want to purchase it, just click here.
Plus, I was interviewed by them. You can read the interview here or after the break.

DQ + The Pint Series.
The Interview:
TPS: What does the name of the series mean?
DQ: The series is called “Sensuality Seriesâ€. The idea behind it was to portray female sensuality as a variable thing. Women can be sensual in very different states and here I tried to show three of them: Cute, Elegant and Hard.
TPS: What inspired the series?
DQ: Women. I think women are an infinite source of inspiration.
TPS: What are you currently doing in terms of client work?
DQ: I’m doing some t-shirts for a company from Thailand and setting up a few websites for some companies back in my country.
TPS: What do you want to do in the design industry?
DQ: I’d really like to work as an art director someday. But also I’d like to try out as much stuff as I can. I’m really into print these days and I’m trying to sort of leave the digital-only world.
Nothing like seeing your work printed out nicely.
TPS: What other personal project have you got going on?
DQ: I’m doing several collab works with different designers from all over. Setting up a project for chilean designers, but it’s still in early stages, so can’t tell you much about that, but be on the lookout.
TPS: Who are your influences?
DQ: I’m always kinda “on the spot†with this question, ’cause the influence list for me is huge.
Just to name a few, but in no case the only ones: Alberto Seveso, Mike Orduña, Pete Harrison, Nelson Balaban, Radim Malinic, etc, etc.
Still, they’re in no way the only ones. the list is practically infinite. too many hot designers out there.
TPS: What programs did you use to make these?
DQ: I used Photoshop CS2 on practically everything. Except for the fragments detaching from the girls, which I made in Cinema4D.
TPS: Are you available for Freelance inquires?
DQ: I’m currently going to college, so intense freelance work gets pretty tricky. But still, I’m always up for new projects.
