I've always wanted to design a calendar, but never had enough time / sufficient motivation / couldn't decide on a specific idea for the ONE theme of the calendar.
So finally in 2021 I've decided to create one, but in a completely different way.
In the beginning of every month I shared FREE TO DOWNLOAD ( !!1!! XD ) calendar page for the current month. Every month it was totally different in illustration style, typography and composition, based on my current mood 🥲 🙃
So here I present you 12 illustrations and thoughts I've been sharing last year.
January
____
WE ARE ALL HEROES 💪 for surviving 2020 and we should embrace it.
That's why I chose on making this little award winner with the cut out - so everyone can put their face there.
February
____
STAY WARM during February ☕️ 💛 Keep yourself warm and healthy, both physically and mentally during these uncertain times. Use this comic-sans-calendar-page to remind you each day about taking care of your wellbeing and staying safe without being too serious about everything.
March
____
MARCH IS A CATS’ MONTH 🐱
We have our first anniversary with 2 little devils, that definitely kept us busy enough to stay sane during all the lockdowns.
April

I AM ENOUGH. Sometimes we all just need to remind ourselves this sentence and don't stretch our limits to meet ambitions. That time I've been experiencing a big disproportion between the amount of work and belief in myself. And when the time for making next monthly calendar has came, I felt a total creative block. Not that I didn't have any ideas - I had a lot - but I couldn't develop any of them. It felt like I totally didn't know how to start and when I tried I felt like I have no abilities in that matter. I haven't had that overwhelming block in a while.
So, eventually, I decided to do this - a kind reminder for myself and everyone that needs to hear this.
We are enough, we're good, everything will be fine. 💛

Is December even a proper month?
Let's face the truth: only a couple days in December matters.
