Painting meets animal spirit - Painted animal portraits (CALVENDO Monthly Calendar 2026)

Vibrantly painted and touching animal portraits (Monthly calendar, 14 pages)

When art therapist Michaela Spreider began painting animals after the death of her cat, she had no idea of the power that lay within her. By looking closely and painting mindfully and in great detail, she almost felt as if she were encountering the animals directly. This inner process resulted in twelve touching portraits, each painted with great care and dedication, vivid in colour and fine in detail. This is a calendar about looking, about closeness and the silent connection between humans and animals. Born out of grief, it grew into a passion.

High-quality wall calendar with 12 beautiful images. We care about the environment. That's why we only use FSC-certified paper from responsible forestry. We avoid overproduction and thus significant amounts of waste as we produce our calendars via print-on-demand in the markets we operate in. This means we can keep our transport routes short and ensure climate-conscious logistical processes
