Hobonichi February

I can't tell you guys how much I'm enjoying my Hobonichi, it just gives me something to do, and a place to get things down. It's a way of experimenting and trying things, but also for letting me have an outlet for creativity.

Hobonichi February Part 1

So far this month has been a not very artistic one. There is a lot more writing on these pages than in my January pages. The first half doesn't even have any painting because I just haven't had the time to sit down and do painting. I bought my Faber Castell brush pens and they've been a bit help in making things look pretty with minimal effort. 

My favourite parts so far are the painted quote pages. I'll probably be doing more of those. Hooray for actually writing quotes in this month! 

I want to try some journalling prompts but there are so many out there. What are you guys using for your journals? Please feel free to share any good ones with me!

Hobonichi January

I've been having fun with painting in my Hobonichi, but I don't feel I have the time to really do what I want to do. For the moment, I'm testing out painting techniques and trying to get comfy. I like the outcome of some of these things and I'd like to share them with you.

This was my first and probably my favourite painting I did. It is a sunrise to show new beginnings- the New Year and my new journal! I followed a tutorial which I found on YouTube (here), but mine is nowhere near as good as theirs. I still love mine a lot!
