Here is “BIRTHDAY BAMA LAMA”, a self published perpetual birthday calendar featuring 365 musical acrylic portraits painted by Artist / DJ Olaf Jens over a period of 2 years on 3.5″ x 5″ wooden panels. This bigger than big project is a tribute to musicians he admires.
A “perpetual” calendar is not a regular calendar. It provides birthdays without mentioning a specific day of the week or year. You can use it until the end of time. A must for freaky record rooms anywhere!
