2015 Literary Calligraphy Calendar Featuring Literary Leaves
The theme of our 2015 Literary Calligraphy calendar is literary leaves. Twelve of Susan Loy's hand-lettered and illustrated watercolors feature writings about leaves or trees, including Whitman's "We Two," Stevens's "O Florida," Emerson's "To Celebrate Our Friendship," Wordworth's "Tintern Abbey," Keats's "A Thing of Beauty Is a Joy for Ever," Thoreau's "A Virtuous Red Maple," Frost's "The Road Not Taken," Shakespeare's Sonnet 73," Southey's "Holly Tree," Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8, the Traditional Irish Blessing with its bright green shamrock leaves, and for Susan Loy collectors, a never-before-published piece showcasing a passage from Thoreau's journal entry on July 20, 1853, "The gentle susurrus from the leaves of the trees on the shore is very enlivening, as if Nature were freshening, awakening to some enterprise." Each month displays a different full-page image on the top, with a full-page monthly grid below that includes past and future months, lunar phases, holidays, and quotations from writers on their birthdays or from their journals about leaves or trees. The 12" x 12" format opens to 12" x 24" - large enough to display intricate detail and allow ample room for jotting down important dates. Our 19th calendar is an economical way to enjoy Susan Loy's Literary Calligraphy artwork. We produce the entire calendar in-house and have it printed on heavy, glossy paper by Bison Printing in Bedford County, Virginia. Made in USA
