2015 Calendar by Shalom Schultz Designs

My 2015 Calendar is online! This year I wanted to focus on encouragement and positivity so I chose 12 simple phrases for each month and matched it with my original artwork to help convey the message. Available in printed form as a desktop or hanging calendar and also as a digital download.

Autumn is HERE!

Honestly, walking around outside and seeing the tips of tree branches just starting to turn is like opening up one Christmas present after another. So excited!

Lovely fall scene from peaceroad.wordpress.com

Adorable art print with the famous quote, 'Autumn, the year's last, loveliest smile.' (William Cullen Bryant) By PrettyPrintShop on Etsy.

A Grateful Heart is a Happy One

'Never let the things you want make you forget the things you have'. Love this! Beautiful artistic quote from lifesublime.ca blog http://lifesublime.ca/we-need-to-focus-on-all-we-have-instead-of-what-we-dont/

Appreciate Life As It Happens...Black & White Art Quote

Wherever you are I hope you have plans to make some memories with friends and family this weekend. Challenge yourself to enjoy every good thing - the sun on your face, the laughter of children, the taste of good food, bright lights in the sky, and the aura of freedom. Drink it all in.

New BLOOMing artwork and a summer sale!

 In between gardening projects, I finally found time to finish my 'Bloom Where You're Planted' prints and list them in my Etsy shop. This is the 1st piece of brand-new artwork I've created since before I got pregnant with my son (over 3 years ago). Woot! Woot! To celebrate, I'm offering 15% off all purchases from my shop (with Coupon Code: BLOOM. Good through the end of August). Happy Day!!! :)

Creativity is one percent inspiration, ninety-nine percent caffeination

After a week without coffee (substituting water and green tea instead, while I battled a sinus infection), I'm ready to get back ON the wagon!! A natural-born night owl, I always seem to do my best work in the wee hours of the morning (also the only time when my house is still and quiet). You can't create if you're not awake! :) I love this quote from The Design Blog.

A Brew Will See You Through

It's almost the weekend, you'll make it. Just reach for another mug of your favorite warm drink and believe that things WILL get better!
