Here’s the deal (taken from Shantell’s announcement):

A. Download/print out the drawing.
B. Remix it in your own style!
C. Send your finished results + info to: on-the-march@shantellmartin.com

Please provide the following information to appear below your work:

A sentence or two about your remix:

No date line…. but sooner is always better than later.
