Send Message: To this poster

I've been having internet service problems the last week so am just catching
up. I love this size, another exchange on the smallish, precious end of the
spectrum. I'll sign up whatever the theme but I'd love to see a'regional'
theme, where we all depict something typical of either the area we live in or we
visit a lot. I'm not sure how to label that in three words or less.

And, while I'm here, I want to wish all the newcomers a hearty 'bienvenido'.
Though I don't comment here much, I always read every single entry, link to
everything that is posted, and enjoy the sharing and the education I get through
this site. I wish you all wonderful productive printmaking in 2011... (and a
'felicidades' for those, like us in Puerto Rico, still in the midst of Christmas
celebrations, awaiting the Three Kings' arrival)...

I love the theme of mythology, but to add to the mix I'll suggest
Botanicals, which I also think could be interesting...

Cheers,

In the spirit of (and as imspiration for) the upcoming Year of the Rabbit
exchange, here's a link to a group of rabbit-themed Japanese nengajo in the
collection of Boston's Museum of Fine Arts.

Send Message: To this poster

It's January here in Tokyo, and while I was browsing through the New
Year cards I received this morning, I came across one I have to share!

It's from baren maker Goto-san ... Not woodblock, but fun!
