january d*s desktop calendar: julia rothman!

juliapic
it’s january and that means it’s time for a new d*s desktop calendar! this month’s design comes from one of my favorite artists, julia rothman. julia was kind enough to create two versions of her illustration for us, one with a calendar and one without. you can download both sizes (with and without a calendar) RIGHT HERE. thank you to julia for creating this month’s design!

These calendars are becoming a monthly treat for me! This one captures the long January “blues” perfectly.

Not only does this look great on my desktop, it prompted me to tidy away all those loose files so I could enjoy the artwork! It’s a gift of art, and a gift of tidy, all in one lovely package :-)

Thank you so much for the wallpaper/calendars! They are all just splendid!

January 5th, 2010 - 1:07 am

Inimitable style. Very beautiful, indeed. Love the dreamlike and almost childishly simple quality of the artwork. The calendar is so cute!

This is so pretty.. I’ve been waiting all day yesterday for this, but due to time differences (Germany over here) I only saw it this morning. Thanks!

Camilla’s calendar is a visual treat! Thank you!

Lovely wallpaper! Great to see DS back up and running.

I wonder if you could sometimes provide one with the calendar on the left rather than right? On Macs the desktop files snap to the right rather than the left on a PC and it covers the calendar.

ann

if you are, you can always keep the one from last month, just use the version without a calendar on it :)

I never thought I’d take Camilla’s down but Julia’s is too perfect for the month plus I’m a huge fan of her work.

Would be great if they all could come in 1920 x 1200 so my mac doesn’t crop or stretch the art.

Much thanks for the hard and super lovely work.
