The last page of the calendar that I made for 2024 using photos that I took of Mexican art, features a work that is appropriate for the season.
It is an example of one of the "yarn paintings" done by members of the Huichol people who live primarily in the states of Jalisco and Nayarit. The Huichol have long created these works of art by pressing yarn onto a wooden board covered with wax. They now use commercial yarn which results in more colorful paintings, and because of the tighter weave of the yarn, more detailed images.
My calendar for 2025 has already been printed and given to friends and relatives as gifts. In January you will see the theme for next year's calendar.
