The 2000 conference is in February, which makes a January deadline the best course of action. The theme for the conference is based on John 4:35 "Behold! Look! The field is ready for harvest." The entire work uses warm browns and golds (even the text is a complimentary dark walnut) to fit the "harvest" color theme. The wheat shafts in the background are of a lower contrast in order to bring out the single shaft in the foreground, and to accentuate it's unique grains. Unlike the background wheat, the foreground shaft is not covered with grains of wheat. Instead it is covered with the fish symbol. This symbol is reminiscent of the Greek IXTHUS used by the early Christians and the promise of Christ that "Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men." (Mark 1:17)
