Introducing Carrot Top Studio’s First Wall Calendar: A Celebration of Nature for 2025

We’re thrilled to announce that for the first time ever, Carrot Top Studio will be offering a wall calendar for 2025! This exciting new project has blossomed from a deeply personal journey—one sketch at a time. Over the past year, I committed to drawing a flower a day in my sketchbook. What started as a simple exercise in creativity soon evolved into a vibrant theme that I’m now bringing to life through this calendar.

The 2025 Whispers of the Garden calendar by Carrot Top Studio will be available November 2024. Jenny Gallo created the charming vibrant art for each month.

The Beauty of Flowers and the Inspiration Behind the Theme

Each month in this calendar is dedicated to the beauty and diversity of flowers, celebrating the patterns, colors, and forms found in nature. The color palette I’ve chosen is vibrant, bursting with life, energy, and the spirit of growth that flowers embody. From bold poppies to delicate snowdrops, each illustration is meant to capture not just the appearance of the flower, but the joy it brings as a symbol of renewal and beauty in our world.

This work has been deeply inspired by the words of Frank Lloyd Wright, who said, "Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you." As I reflected on this quote throughout the year, it became a guiding mantra for this calendar project. The act of observing flowers closely, sketching them from different angles, and exploring their intricate details reminded me of the endless wisdom and inspiration that nature offers us.

The Connection Between Art and Nature

For me, this calendar represents more than just a collection of pretty images. It’s about the profound connection between art and nature. In studying flowers, I’ve been reminded of how creation mirrors our own creative journeys—full of growth, unexpected beauty, and moments of quiet reflection. Nature teaches us patience and persistence, just as it nurtures the land to produce life in its own time.

In this wall calendar, I’ve tried to weave these ideas into each illustration. Each flower is a small testament to the lessons that nature offers when we pause, observe, and let it inspire us.

Bringing Vibrance to Your Space

Our 2025 wall calendar is designed to do more than just help you keep track of the days. It’s meant to bring a touch of nature’s vibrancy into your home or office. Whether it’s the bright pop of color in a dreary winter month or the reminder of summer’s warmth during the cooler seasons, my hope is that this calendar serves as a daily invitation to appreciate the beauty around us.

This calendar is perfect for nature lovers, gardeners, and anyone who appreciates art that celebrates the world we live in. It’s a reminder that, no matter the season, nature is always there to offer us inspiration and joy.

Looking Forward

As I continue my creative journey with Carrot Top Studio, I am so excited to share this new project with you. I hope that in 2025, our wall calendar brings the same sense of wonder and peace that I experienced while creating it. I’m looking forward to hearing how it brightens your space and inspires your own connection with nature.
