Description
Chinese New Year series - Year of the Pig

This was the first piece of the series, compile back in 2007, which kicked off the whole series. The phrase at the top translates to "Wish you a auspicious year of the Boar".

Why did I started on the pig instead of the rat, who heralds the Chinese lunar zodiac?
Well... the original intention was just a simple one-off greeting card for friends and family back in 2007, which happened to be the Year of the Pig.

Would I expect to complete the whole series?
I sure hope so, I'm only compiling a single piece per year for this series, so it's going to take 12 years! 2018 is not that far away, is it...?
