For the past few years, I have been making my own holiday cards. This was from 2007. When I looked at it today, I realized my dog was a pancake in this image! I love finding recurring themes in my artwork.
Sometimes abstract elements such as colors or shapes appear over and over. Sometimes narrative images appear. For example, one recurring image is a girl or woman looking into a mirror.

Here is a drawing from a sketchbook that is a couple of years old:

What are your thoughts on this? What are the recurring elements in your work?
In the meantime, I'd better get moving on my holiday card for '08!
