2023 Calendar – California Poppies

Type of Work:
Type of Client:

I make these wall calendars every year with one big image in the background or twelve themed images in alternating squares.

I note the birthdays of friends and relatives (and cats) with their name on the date plus a bright gold star behind it. (To protect privacy I’ve changed them all to “Name” here, but you get the idea.)

The 2023 images is of California poppies, the state flower. I love the bright orange, a recurring color in my home, for its energy and positivity.

Horizontal photo of gray-and-white cat cat with green eyes, front half from belly up. Cat has mouth slightly open as if meowing. Background is bright orange bedspread with gray sheets. Framed illustration of California poppies on blurred far wall.

Orange also looks great as a background for my gray-and-white cat, “Eights.”
