SEARCHCheck out these amazing designs from the 9 finalists in round #2 of the 10th annual NTNA Challenge where the artists designed a memory from childhood.
"Why choose one memory when I can include all of my favorites? Do I tell my age with these? Maybe. I was thinking so hard about this theme and always some sort of toy came to mind. I illustrated all of the 90s staple toys which I loved and created good memories for me."
