The Celts perceived the presence of divine forces in all aspects of nature. Patterns of harmony and balance, dark and light, winter and summer, female and male, are woven throughout Celtic tradition. Celtic knots and patterning reflect their belief in the continuity of life, the interconnection of all things, plants, animals and otherworldly divinities. The Celtic Mandala 2012 Wall Calendar presents the magical weavings of Welsh artist Jen Delyth in calendar form. Jen's work is founded in her deep connection to her Celtic heritage. She creates intricate paintings and illustrations, using traditional egg tempera and contemporary digital techniques. Her original iconographic style is inspired by the Spirit in Nature, expressing our mythic connection to the natural world. A Celtic Mandala 2012 Engagement Calendar and Jen's full-color illustrated book, Celtic Folk Soul, are also available from Amber Lotus Publishing.
The interior pages of this calendar are printed on 100% recycled, 50% post-consumer paper, processed chlorine free and printed with soy based inks. In addition to printing our products on recycled paper, Amber Lotus Publishing continues to plant trees and offset our carbon footprint with NativeEnergy.

I do not know what medium the artist used for these but they have wonderful shading that looks good from a distance as well as close up...which can be a very difficult thing to do as celtic style designs become more complex. There is a tranparency to the art that is rare in a calendar that is priced for retail sale (not for art quality). On the last page of the calendar there are sample of the artists other works, which has inspired me to goto the calendar publishers website to order some of the blank cards with some of the same images on them (more and different that what amazon offers). To see the quality of the printing of this calendar I can only imagine the high...Read more
