Retro Illustrations

Step back in time and create art inspired by the print styles of past decades. Think bold colors, vintage textures, and nostalgic design—from mid-century ads to old comic book covers and classic magazine spreads. ✍️

Examples of on-theme creations could include:

• a 1950s travel poster for an imaginary city
• a retro sci-fi book cover with bold typography
• a 1970s-style fashion ad illustration
• a playful vintage cartoon scene in a classic print palette

When making your art, keep these things in mind:

• Creativity: Did you show the theme in a unique or interesting way? Will your art stand out?
• Visual Impact: Is your image eye-catching or emotional? Will it make people stop and feel something?
• Fits the Theme: Is it clear how your image connects to today’s theme? Will voters understand the idea right away?
• Skill: Does your art show that you know how to use prompts and site tools well?
