Print Swap 2012

It is that time of the year. The days are drawing in, the nights are getting darker, and Christmas is coming. Another year, almost gone. Its all a bit bleak isn't it. So I thought it might be quite nice to do something chipper and festive and have a bit of a print swap. Not terribly unlike a Secret Santa, except on the Internet and from all over the world not just the person who sits next to you at work.

Here is how it will work:
Everyone who wants to take part, comment below with your email address.
You will have 2 weeks to sign up.
On 18th Nov, I will get in touch via email at which point I will collect physical addresses, and then send you the address of your partner.
(They will not know who has got them, that is the secret part.)
Then you send a print to the person you have been paired with, and you get a print from the person that has your name.

This is not limited to photographs. If you make illustrations, collages, paintings, zines, and you'd like to swap, please do take part. Everyone is welcome, lets mix it up!

You will be responsible for sending out your own print, so please only take part if you will have time to send something out so we don't have any disappointed folk. The print you send can be as big or small as you like - and don't forget to leave your email address so I can get in touch with you!

Everyone should get a little surprise in the post just before Christmas to perk us up during the cold months. Unless you are in the Southern Hemisphere, where it is always warm, and glorious sting rays eat out of your hands, and you bask in golden sands, and eat tamarillos until your fingers are stained red.

Times up on this I'm sorry teamsters! Thanks to everyone who signed up, I can't wait to see what you all get!
