Collection: "Psychedelic Calendar"

One night a telemarketer, bored while waiting for the autodialer to deliver actual, live persons to regale with timeshare ownership sales pitches, decided to draw pictures to pass the time. A coworker who occupied an adjacent cubicle suggested the colleague make use of the felt pens that were up on the supervisors' desk, that "anyone can use them." Not yet realizing this individual pretended to want friendship, but was secretly hateful, the artist believed the lie, only to be told the next day by a supervisor, "Don't ever use those pens again. Those are 'Jocelyn's.'"

Feeling set up by two sneaky coworkers to be accused of using materials that belonged to an individual, not the whole office, the "booking agent" nevertheless scanned the original artwork, to be entitled "Vibrant" as the colors for Fall, 2017, were very bright and saturated. Lo and behold, garish diagonal lines in black pen that had seemed to be fully covered reappeared to ruin the graphic. Hours of Adobe Photoshop stamping later, the lines were gone, and some other minor imperfections, as well. Now, the "Vibrant" print could be used to customize products for consumers.

"Seeped" happened all by itself, as a calendar below got embellished with ink that soaked from one page onto the next. "Muted" involved ten minutes working with hue and saturation adjustment with the help of Adobe again, and the same was true for "Chilled." More iterations are sure to follow, customized for seasonal color palettes as desireable.
