Sooo, better late than never, right? My plan for the blog this year was to pick a different character each month to play around with. Make a desktop wallpaper, design some new on-demand products or repeat patterns, do a printable or tutorial, etc. But of course I didn’t get much of a holiday to plan, thanks to my horrible cold. BUT that’s no reason to throw away a good idea, especially since January feels as long as two months.
So, here’s a desktop wallpaper for January with or without a calendar, plus iPhone 5 + 6 wallpapers too. These should fit most computers and smartphones – if you’d like me to do a tablet one too, let me know.
I’ve given myself some restrictions to for this year’s designs to try out some new things. They have to feature circles/dots and use different colour combinations than my usual favourites. January features my Mt Fuji character and uses some traditional colours you see a lot in Japanese woodblock prints. Mt Fuji is only available as a badge so far, so I’m looking forward to seeing him on some more products.
If you’d like to be emailed on the 1st of every month with a link to download the latest wallpapers, plus any other recent freebies you’ve missed, join my mailing list as I’m planning to send out more regular emails. That won’t be more than twice a month and you can unsubscribe any time with one click.
