Every month I design a calendar with my illustrations. For February, I painted a watercolour version of this beautiful bird - waxwing.

This beautiful fella is said to be visiting Latvia around this time - early February. That's why I chose it for this month. Waxwings are usually residing further in the North (Sweden, Canada), and migrate during winter time to warmer places, like, the Baltics.
The outcome:
I really like putting my illustrations on practical items. I started designing calendars only for my own personal use, because I really wanted a beautiful, minimal piece to put on my wall. Why not create one myself?
The first one I shared to some of my friends, and then I decided I can make one every month and should share it for free to all my friends & followers on Facebook (I have a few, not much).
Materials
I used my favourite watercolours - Gansai Tambi, 18 pcs set, a Kuretake waterbrush pen, 0.5 mm black pen for details, and a white gel pel

I'm on Steemit for almost a month now, and I adore the positivity and encouragement this platform, and Dtube, has given me. Only because of Dtube I have finally fulfilled my tiny dream of creating a timelapse and talking about art on video.
So I'm sharing to you, too, dear people, my February calendar, free to use.

If you draw or paint anything, you can turn your art into something more, so I hope you find inspiration in this video!
