Seasonal Calendar



Each year I create an original drawing that I use as a holiday card for clients and friends. Perhaps my career as a graphic designer began as a child when I would create my own greeting cards to give to my family. I've been producing my own cards in a variety of mediums for many years. This year I decided to expand upon that tradition and created a seasonal quarterly calendar that I am sending to some of my clients in the healthcare field. 


I used the same illustration that I used for my holiday card, an illustration of a girl receiving the icy breath of the snow queen. The illustration is a combination of colored pencil, with icy effects added in Adobe Photoshop. On each of the calendars I will feature a seasonal medical condition and treatment. The calendar for the first quarter was focused on hypothermia.
