A Calendar of Whimsical Albums offered by Louise Francke

The 2013 Calendar full of Whimsical Animals debuts this month. I have been creating calendars for 5 years. Each month is a  sturdy trading card which displays the versatility of my style and themes where humor prevails. Past years contained portraits of both wild and domesticated animals, birds of North Carolina, and Carolina scenes. 2013’s original oil paintings of animals are placed ironically in famous art works. They will enliven your fridge or wallet. The trading card size is perfect for the Xmas stocking or a mailing envelop. Important notes can be jotted on the rear. They are delightful keepsakes for both adults and teens.

These trading card sized calendars are available locally at Frank Gallery in Chapel Hill, at the NC Crafts Gallery in Carrboro, and at The Joyful Jewel in Pittsboro. Globally they can be ordered at Amazon.

Here are details about his unique calendar. The 3.5 X 2.5 inch ARTIST TRADING CARD CALENDAR is designed for placing on a miniature easel or on the refrigerator with the enclosed magnet or carrying in your purse. An easel is not included. Each month’s card stock is 16 point with a satin matte surface on both sides. Each month’s back is lined for notes and the holidays per month are listed. This is a Ltd edition of 250 calendars.
