I vote for:

Theme: "Secret Hideaway"
could be real place where we go to "recharge the batteries" or a place in
our mind? a kid's real or imaginary "tree house"? etc...

Size: long and skinny, like 5"x15" (I love the challenge of that format)

I think Maria's idea is a great one, both the idea "Secret Hideaway" and the format 5x15. Though I will be on the Wait List for this exchange, this would definitely get my vote!

Subject: [Baren 33050] New Member Introduction
Send Message: To this poster

I would just like to introduce myself to the forum. I go by 'Shei',
corporate Graphic Designer by day, and hopeful creative by night.
Starting this year I intend on redeeming myself for selling out to the
man by reviving my interest in the arts.

I've taken a single class in Relief Printing back in college, but
would like to pursue it further on my own. I've stumbled upon this
forum while googling for materials online. I'm so grateful I did find
it! Your works are inspiring!

I've always been interested in Japanese culture as far as I can
remember. (I even minored in it!) It's a shame I have not exposed
myself to the techniques! Time to change that though, and I'm looking
forward to it!

どうずよろしく。

Fiver Folks,
I was taking some young students from Florida around Lincoln on Monday and
was mildly amused at a question/answer session with our offical guide in the
city's council room.
It may, or may not, amuse you : here it is :

The size 5" x 15" would be awesome.
For the theme I would do something a little out of the ordinary.
Like: "Three colors or more"
Meaning a themed color scheme versus a subject theme.
Any subject, just no less than three colors in it.
Peace
Robert

Hi Shei!
Welcome aboard!
This place is the best. It has the largest wealth of knowledge for woodblock printmaking and other techniques for that matter. The people are great and extremely helpful.
Ask a millions questions.
