"It is such a joy to now own my own shop, although it is a lot of work and responsibility."

The artistry of I Ketut Kartika has been featured in Depth magazine.

His name is Ketut Kartika, however his friends and relatives known him better as Seririt, after the name of the village where he was born. Just like any other person who lived in a small village, Kartika and family have lived through hard times. Kartika used to help his mother collect firewood from a nearby forest and sell it for a living. Kartika's mother, Nyoman Nici, is a hard working woman, for she has had to take care of her five children on her own.

Thanks ...
