Hi guys,

Happy new year! Can you believe it’s 2021? Last year felt like it would never end and then all of a sudden, here we are.

I painted this month’s calendar with a lot of hope for this new year.  I'm super happy to start my FOURTH YEAR of creating this free calendar for you! Yaay! Super happy I get to keep bringing you a little gift from my creative world each month! I hope it brings us all lots of health and happiness, an increased appreciation for the things we do have and let’s hope this year we can turn things around so we can once again be around our loved ones. We have a lot of hugs and kisses stored up for our family and friends, and I hope 2021 is going to allow us to finally give and receive them freely again.

All my best to you and your loved ones for 2021, and enjoy January’s calendar, Hope Girl!

Hi guys,

Happy December 1st!  My new December calendar, Christmas Gown Girl, rounds up a full THREE YEARS of creating this free calendar for you, and I can’t believe it’s been so long!  I’m super happy to know that you’re still enjoying my calendar, and I’m excited to continue the tradition in 2021 – so stay tuned!  

If you’ve been around for a while, you know that December is my favorite month of the year, not only because of Christmas, but also because it’s my birthday on December 27 (which I gave a slight nod to with the pink highlight on the calendar for that date ;)

With the way things have been this year, I may be living in leggings and not dressing up much, but I’m letting Christmas Gown Girl get all dressed up for me, too ;) I’m already in the mood for twinkling lights, holiday music and making ornaments for my newly rearranged painting studio. Bring on ‘Elf’ and ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’, cozy blankets and hot cocoa!

Check out my Instagram @thecristinatudor for daily painting videos and studio behind-the-scenes and watch HERE how I painted this calendar with a special musical treat!

I hope Christmas Gown Girl brings you holiday cheer!  Watch the video of how I painted her below.

Hi guys,

With Thanksgiving so close, and this crazy, crazy year we’ve had, I’m in the mood for hot cocoa, cinnamon, cozy sweaters and some sparkle. So I’m going to swap out my summer tees for fall sweaters, string up some lights to warm up my painting studio as the days grow shorter, and maybe even decorate early for Christmas this year.

I hope my November calendar, Cinnamon Girl, keeps you all cozy and warm!

I'm so excited to be featured in @voyagelamag as part of their Shoutout LA feature! Read about why I decided to leave corporate architecture behind to pursue my dream of becoming a fashion illustrator, the challenges I encounter in my career, and what I find incredibly rewarding in working with my clients HERE. Thanks for the Shoutout, VoyageLA! 🎨

Inspired by singer and former Miss Teen beauty @pascmonique 🎨🖌

Looking back at a lovely Ferragamo Rodeo Drive live fashion illustration event in Beverly Hills! I loved drawing on these gorgeous metallic silver cards, like drawing on glass, so smooth! 🖌🎨 And the magical Rodeo Drive at night sparkling full of lights ✨

Hi guys,

I hope my September calendar, Pink Feathers Girl, finds you and your loved ones well and healthy. These hot temps in Los Angeles have me dreaming of summer colors like juicy pinks in a burst of hot pink feathers, and they inspired me to go all-out with lots of color!  My inspiration for this month's calendar came from beauty @caitlinlawson__ surrounded by a whirlwind of neon pink feathers in a photo taken by @snapsstudio - not to mention the amazing makeup by @jenniferconejobeauty ! When inspiration strikes, a new painting emerges!

Enjoy Pink Feathers Girl!

Hi guys,

I hope my August calendar, Summer Girl, finds you and your loved ones well and brings you an extra dose of sunshine with its pop of neon yellow.

My inspiration for this month’s illustration came from the label Urban Zen by Donna Karan.  With their beautiful designs and textures and their strong eco message and social conscience, they’re an old favorite revisited.

I hope Summer Girl keeps you cool this hot August!

Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸🎨

Hi guys,

I hope my July calendar finds you well!

I was inspired to paint this month’s calendar by the upcoming 4th of July and the Black Lives Matter movement.

As I painted Independence Girl, my heart was full of hope that this 4th of July will mark the beginning of a newfound independence from bigotry and prejudice! My biggest wish is that now we will finally stop treating people differently simply based on the color of their skin. I hope that all the protests will be heard and we will FINALLY make the leap towards living as one race: the human race!

I hope Independence Girl brightens up your days this month and brings you hope!
