  • Here's how I've been using my Hobonichi Cousin this year, and how I will use it for 2025!
    In this video, I talk about:
    - making a techo kaigi / page about your planner and journal needs can help you
    - how I felt about the new Tomoe River S paper, and how it's changed my art process
    - how I use yearly, monthly and weekly pages
    - the types of things I collect in my book
    Hope this gives you an idea of some of the uses of a Hobonichi Cousin. Thanks for watching!

    I've been using a Hobonichi Techo to journal in everyday for many years.

    I loved watching your video! Your voice was so calm & it felt like a friend was explaining her Hobonichi setup to me 🫶 Your art has such a warm & cozy feeling to it & looking back at your pages feels like they’re infused with nostalgia 🍂

    this is such a wonderful flip through, i LOVE your art and how you document in the cousin. I was always worried it would get too chunky - but the satisfying way you can see the whole year in one book may move me from the avec!

      @astrocatdraws  7 днів тому +1

      thanks a lot! 😊 chunky is ok, i used to carry my whole year around with me on public transport 😅 i've used avec in the past but it didn't feel right for me. you do you though! 💖

      Thanks! 💖 Oh gosh, that's really nice of you. Maybe if not in person, then maybe online? I'm thinking of doing something like that on Patreon but prerecorded as there's a big difference in timezones in Australia...

    Your style is beautifully original. I love it so much! My Cousin this year is stylistically almost the polar opposite to yours as it’s covered in edge to edge writing in black ink 😄. I hope to art journal a bit more next year and your example reminded me to invoke more playfulness ☺️.

    • @astrocatdraws
      @astrocatdraws  11 днів тому +1

      thank you! your cousin sounds great, do you have a special ink you like to use? it's fun just to be loose in the journal and just do whatever the story of that day tells you to do. e.g. paste a leaf, cut up some paper

      @@astrocatdraws I used Platinum Carbon Black but it’s very dry for my pen so I decided to go wild and venture into grey (Pilot Iroshizuku Kiri-Same) this week. Thank you for your ideas! My son is always handing me leaves and flowers so it’ll be a nice way to mark his little gifts by pasting them in my journal.

      @@helenaliu I'm a big fan of Platinum Carbon Black too for drawing, using an EF Preppy though sometimes finding it not fine enough for drawing. The blue grey of the Iroshizuku Kiri-Same looks interesting! Also your son sounds really sweet 🌼🍃 Thats a nice memento to put in your journal!
