After five years of stunning planner designs, it is safe to say that Kelly Ventura is part of the Blue Sky family. Customers cannot get enough of her lush, nature-inspired watercolor artwork displayed on some of our best-selling planners, calendars, and accessories. This season is no exception, with rich, wintery navy blues and warm fall foliage displayed on Kelly’s 2024 planner and calendar collection.

Artist, business owner, and mom of three, Kelly Ventura’s artwork has been seen everywhere, from wallpaper at Anthropologie to prints at Pottery Barn and upholstery fabric for custom furnishings. Her hand-painted Christmas ornaments sold out in minutes last year, and we’re hoping she makes them again this year so we can snag a few for ourselves. Inspired by the landscape of her home in Michigan, Kelly Ventura’s watercolor interpretations of nature have a unique hand of artistry that makes her work recognizable and iconic. We are grateful to share another season of Kelly’s work with our customers on their 2024 planners and calendars so they can look at a beautiful piece of art each day of the new year.

"Planning helps me meet deadlines and stay on task, but I especially love penciling in time to paint something for myself. We all need to refresh and refocus sometimes." ~ Kelly
