Artist Calendars ~ Another Odd Request

I am on a quest and am hoping that those of you who read my blog may be able to fulfill my needs.

As the new year has arrived I presume that many of you will be discarding your old calendars. If, by chance, you have any that are of famous artists (see sample list below), could you please save them for me! I would, of course, pay for postage.

The exact year is of no consequence as I do not need them to function as a calendar. What I desire are the images of their artwork for use in our homeschool. We study a different artist every 4-6 weeks, focusing on a different piece of work each week. Postcards and Calendars make wonderful references for use in our Art Study Notebook and I would love to build a small resource for future reference.

Vincent Van Gogh
Georgia O'Keefe
Renoir
Claude Monet
Wolf Kahn
Pablo Picasso
Frida Kahlo
Jonathan Green
Salvador Dali
Rembrandt
MC Escher
Boris Vallejo
Leonardo Da Vinci
Raphael
Norman Rockwell
Mary Engelbreit
Kandinsky
Audubon
Edvard Munch
Lassen

Thank you so much! If interested, I'd be happy to share more about our approach to Art Study. :D

  1. Ohhhhhh chica!! I have 2 coffee table type books of Dali and Rembrandt that are just collecting dust downstairs. They have lots of images in them. They're not very big and paperback type. Send me an e-mail and I'll mail em off to you. Don't worry about postage, I consider it a gift for you to get them out of my house LOL

  3. I think I have a 2005 or 2006 Alphonse Mucha that is still in the plastic. I bought it to frame the a couple of the images for our bathroom, but changed my style so it's just sitting around here somewhere. If you are interested in it, send me an email at penny-penn at sbcglobal dot net.
