Imagine this

Advent calendar door number 16: Imagination is key for any kind of creative work. And our self-publisher Federico Cortese has loads: He imagined new species of butterflies, made a series of drawings and voilà, we’ve got this wonderfully whimsical Imaginary butterflies calendar now. Nice, isn’t it.

Mother Nature’s gift

So graceful: Hidden behind door number 15 of our Advent calendar is this beautiful flamingo. Photographer Dave Knowles has put together a whole collection of images for his Just Flamingos calendar featuring this type of wading bird in all its glory. The colours are delightful, showing that Mother Nature simply always does it best.

It’s all in the remix

Advent calendar door number 14: Psychedelic Monday – this should help you start the week with a bit of pizazz:

Want more? It’s all in Dex Hannon’s Remixing Nature calendar where you can see how the UK multimedia artist uses a digital paintbrush to remix his plant photography. Dex is a bit of a jack of all trades, working on all kinds of exciting arts projects and he also runs the Facebook Calvendo Authors Group for the UK. Thumbs up!
