This years theme is "Greetings From a Distant Land"
The hope is that you'll end up with prints from Europe and Africa and far away places, the reality is a lot of mine have come from the East coast US- although I did get some cool ones the first year from places like San Francisco and Seattle. I have one from Kansas too.
Last year the theme was Just a Second and I think I had missed posting it up here, but I did a child to adult type theme- as in "it just takes a second to grow up" Maybe the same girl, maybe sisters, something like that.
Then I just carved it up and ran 13 of them off to go out to the world. Ran off isnt the right term because I ended up printing them by hand, so really I painstakingly rubbed each one with a spoon until I thought my arm would fall off. Now I have a baron so hopefully this year it'll go smoother.
This year I'm not sure if I should do like some fun fantasy world or if I should just do a little relief portrait of my home town somewhere, thinking that to whoever gets it it will be from a far away land.
