April 2019 / 2024 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper

Update: If you are coming from the future (2024, lol!), you are in the right place! 

A few weeks ago, I fell and injured my wrist on my dominant drawing hand, so I have not been able to make work at the same capacity recently until it is healed up! I’m not one to April Fools, so I wanted to make sure you had a wallpaper in your inbox this morning, even if it was a re-run :) The dates for this wallpaper are indeed correct for 2024, and I hope you will enjoy a fun Throwback Edition of my April Wallpaper!

Happy April! :) I hope it's been feeling like Spring wherever you are! This is the first Spring we are in our house, and we have been discovering all kinds of plants and trees that we didn't realize we had in our yard - like daffodils, a dogwood tree, and a Japanese Maple tree (Dan's favorite). As we've made these discoveries, it's truly felt like a little bit of magic. I also feel a shifting sense of energy: an excitement for things to come and a renewed sense of joy. So with that in mind, I created April's Desktop Wallpaper for you, to share a little magic with you too. I hope you like it!

March 2019 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper

Happy March, everyone :) It's been getting a bit warmer in Atlanta, and all of the flowers are starting to bloom! My daily walks with Patty in our budding neighborhood are the source of inspiration for this month's happy wallpaper. I used Winsor & Newton watercolors and a soundtrack of Florence + the Machine to create this for you. Hope you enjoy!

February 2019 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper

Happy February! I have been watching a good deal of the Great British Baking Show while the temps drop (but not by too much - stay safe, midwest friends!), and for inspiration for this month's desktop wallpaper, featuring flowers and little candies. I joke with Daniel that all I want for Valentine's Day is a Second Halloween, but after making this illustration, perhaps this year I can settle on a Whitman's Sampler.

Happy New Year! The January 2019 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper

Happy 2019! I hope you had a restful holiday, and are entering the new year with energy and optimism. This month, I wanted to create a wallpaper that was simple but elegant, with white space for breathing, since that is part of my New Years Resolution this year. I am hoping to simplify, and achieve more of a work-life balance. And also have more fun! What are your resolutions??

Happy November! This month, I will be gearing up for the holidays, launching our 2019 Folk Art Florals Calendar (coming November 5th!), and donating to some good causes. Most importantly, I will be VOTING! Who's with me?

This month's calendar was created in my ProCreate App for the iPad Pro - I have been loving this workflow so much! I typically use the Dry Ink brush under Inking for my linework.

Happy August! This month is my birthday month, and I'll be turning 32 on August 8th! I wanted to create an extra-special desktop wallpaper for you this month, that captures the feeling of warm summer nights in the backyard - because that's how I've been spending the last few months.

May 2018 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper

This month is a big month for us here at Paper Raven Co.! We're moving house and studio (again, woof!) and we're coming off of a bonkers month of Holiday deadlines. It was especially refreshing to paint with some lovely sherbet pinks and bright, fresh greens. Daniel, Patty and I have been taking every chance we have to be outside in the sunshine, and I am excited af for the new *backyard* that's coming with our new house!! Tiki torches, BBQs, string lights, sunny morning coffee, lots of gardening. Lately I've really been trying to count the little, everyday joys in my life.

Happy April, and Happy Easter, for those who celebrate. If you don't celebrate, then cheers to more sunshine - which we are finally having here in Atlanta! And what inspired April's Wallpaper. On my quest for more color, I have fallen even more deeply in love with royal blues and bright yellows. I hope you enjoy this happy wallpaper! Sending you good vibes at the start of this month.

Hello March, aka All The Rain - 2018

March Desktop Wallpaper by Paper Raven Co.

 

This month was all about COLOR. I love rich, china blues. It's been incredibly rainy here in Atlanta (like, for weekssss), so I also wanted to do a tribute to the downpour, and the resulting bloom-age that is slowly filling up my studio windows :) My dog, Patty, does not like it one bit (diva).

Now for the Wallpaper! 
Click on the graphic above to download the free desktop wallpaper. AND, after many requests, I have made a coordinating phone background as well, tucked in there too. Sorry it took me so long, y'all!

If you like these, please tell your friends about it, and tag me on Instagram with a pic of your desktop or phone in your feed or stories! Cheers, Enjoy, and hopefully it's not too rainy where you live.

As always, thank you for following my work. I love the experimentation + freedom these monthly wallpapers bring, and I'm so happy to share them with you.

Warmly, Erin
