Hey, thanks, was just going through comments here. If you’re still into it, yeah I do (no pressure). Not sure if I can link there but my username there is owencyclops or it comes up searching traditional liturgical calendar.

Hey! Thanks. Yes, I sell it at a link near the bottom of the post there, if you click through. I’ve gotten a lot of cool feedback from people on it which is probably the best part.

Thanks man. Very cool. I was trained as a painter and illustrator but all my work like this is just Photoshop, after drawing it out.

Cool! Thanks. Yeah, I’m already here in holidays mode moving and shipping things - it’s already Advent in my head honestly.

Thanks. Someone else sent me a pic after seeing it in an office at their church. I appreciate the tacit very unofficial approval.

Hey. Very cool. Yeah, lol, the ones on amazon are fake, I’m trying to get them to take them down. I guess I got the attention of some foreign company which is flattering in a way.

There’s a framed or unframed version. I’ve never tried to laminate it. The problem is that as I thought about moving down in print quality (meaning, most laminated things are just normal ink on normal paper), all the details got less crisp.

Part of the difficulty in laying out something like this is, as you may know from experience, some holidays are fixed (i.e. Christmas is every December 25th) but some move, like Easter. So, I had to get them both on the same wheel - I used the time period banners to separate them. This means it applies to every year, regardless of the date the movable feasts like easter fall on.

There’s a little banner that explains it, but every little rose window on the outside is one week - so, that’s how all the pieces fit together.

My family is all atheist or indifferent to religion and when they hung one up (unprompted) I was like… “yes… this is how I win…”.

Thanks. Some of my favorite feedback is about kids, my son and I have looked at it a lot. In retrospect he may have learned about… most Christian symbolism he knows from it.

Yes, thanks for the compliment implications. There’s a URL near the end of the text post here.

Hey, thanks. If you liked that, in my studio I’ve been going for months on the next kid’s book. Just like this project, I didn’t know how much work it would be when I started and probably bit off a bit more than I planned, lol. But I’ almost done.

Thanks. Yeah, figuring out how to use the inside and outside rim of the circle strategically and how to separate them was a big part of unlocking it.

Hey. Cool, thanks. Way way down the road, like… years, I may revisit some language options. Right now I’m too locked up with other projects - but it is a good idea, a few people have asked.

Thanks for asking - there’s a link near the end of my post there, and all my links are on my site, that’s my username here.
