Designed by Salish Scenes creator Mary Jo Davis, this small-in-size desktop 2023 calendar was a big hit. Check Mary Jo’s website later this year to get your copy of the upcoming 2024 calendar:

Here from the pages of Tideland Magazine’s illustrated series, Salish Scenes, are the sketches that capture the spirit of the beautiful Salish Sea, redesigned into a desktop calendar. Designed by Salish Scenes creator Mary Jo Davis, the calendar is small enough to fit on any desk or shelf, and its solid wood stand is crafted from salvaged madrone wood on Bainbridge. They’re printed on the island, too, making them a truly local holiday gift. Davis hand paints each watercolor image, inspired by the amazing things she sees—from orcas to octopus—when exploring our waters and islands.
As co-founder of davis studio A+D, Mary Jo Davis can most usually be found designing printed graphic designs and developing brands for clients. But more recently, she’s been focusing on illustration, most notably for Tideland Magazine which will release it’s fourth issue in early December, 2022. She’s looking forward to creating more paintings for the upcoming year. To see more of her illustrations and other artwork, visit her personal site: maryjodavis.com.
Printed copies are mailed out around the West Sound, and you can view the fall issue of Salish Scenes at: tidelandmag.com
Thanks to @Tidelandmag and @becrah for writing a great article about our design of The Walk. We’re proud that the community aspect of the project really works and that it helped the residents (our fellow islanders) get through these last couple trying years. And congrats to Tideland on this beautiful premiere issue!!

Thanks to everyone for all the great feedback on our Dwell magazine article. One pleasant surprise to come of it was lots of interest in the alphabet poster featured on page 36. This was designed by Mary Jo Davis for our own home, but you all got us thinking that it should be made available for purchase. While we work out those details, if you’re interested in a custom print, please contact us for pricing at design@davisstudioad.com

If you missed the print version of our Dwell magazine article, “It Takes a Village”, you can check out the online version. It has most of the same pictures and gives an overall great feel for our community life here on beautiful Bainbridge Island.
