About The Calendar

Measuring 19" by 11.75", the 2011 calendar's borders feature new, unbelievably-intricate illustrations. Each and every moon phase has been drawn and set by hand. Every piece of the 2011 calendar is completely original, created using only pencil and ink.

The 2011 lunar calendar glows in the dark.

Each print is individually machine blind-debossed machine with its print number and edition information.

Alec Thibodeau's "Pineal Grigio" measures 19" by 11.75", the exact same dimensions as his 2008, 2009, and 2010 lunar calendars. The limited edition letterpress printed lunar calendar details the 365 phases of the moon for 2011. A continuation of the past three years' calendar illustrations, the piece is the fourth installment in Alec's Lunar Calendar Series. The calendar is based on the skies of Providence, Rhode Island but will function accurately anywhere in the Eastern Time Zone and to within a day of accuracy for any location in the Northern Hemisphere. Special illustrations represent New Moon, First Quarter Moon, Full Moon and Third Quarter Moon for each four week cycle. Clouds serve as placeholders in months with fewer than 31 days.

The letterpress print is produced by Dan Wood of DWRI Letterpress. Edition information and print number is blind-debossed into each calendar.

Alec's Charity

Alec has chosen the Biddeford Free Clinic as his calendar's charity. A portion of the money from each print sold will be donated to the organization. For almost 20 years, the Biddeford Free Clinic has worked to provide accessible and free outpatient general medical care and non-narcotic medication to adults and children who have no medical insurance and cannot afford private medical care.
