January wallpaper: Year of the Ox
Happy New Year! Wish you all have a lovely 2009. This year I will continue with my calendar wallpaper series and hope to make a nice collection. I think wallpaper design can give me the most freedom since it is simpler. During the second half of 2008 I realized that people tend to like minimalist style wallpapers. As my November wallpaper “Wisdom comes with Winter” has received the most positive feedback so far. So I will try and keep on with it. Thanks for your support and comments in 2008.
Nengajyou (年賀状) style
January wallpaper comes in a Nengajyou style. “Nengajyou” (年賀状) is a Japanese New Year’s greeting card. The little cow in the corner represents the Year of the Cow. And the Japanese text on it saying “Akemashite Omedetou” (あけましておめでとう)means “Happy New Year”.
Enjoy ;)

That’s beautiful! Did you hand draw it? Either way it’s lovely.
