january hobonichi art journal pages

january hobonichi art journal pages

I just wanted to share with you my January Hobonichi art journal pages! A creative intention of mine this year is to keep a daily art journal and using my A6 Hobonichi has been helping me keep on track. I will say though that art journaling each day is really hard. I’ve been finding it difficult to journal each day that sometimes I have to catch up on two or three days. So I’ve decided to do spreads instead doing a page on each single day page. So if Monday and Tuesday end up being a spread, I’ll journal on those pages on either one of those days. So technically I’m journaling every other day, but it’s been a bit more manageable.

I will say though that I’m way behind on February. I haven’t even started–oops!

I really like the A6 size. It’s the perfect size for me because I feel like I can create more because there isn’t much paper to fill up. I do love my A5 size as well, but there’s something really nice about working a bit smaller. I feel like I can work quickly as well. The Hobonichi paper is quite nice. My only fault with it is that it takes longer for specific mediums to dry. Like watercolors. I try not to add too much water when using watercolors because it takes a while for the color to seep into the paper and dry. I also managed to use acrylics as well, but I usually apply the paint with a plastic card, which makes it so that I only apply a very thin layer of paint and it dries quickly. I haven’t been brave enough to add paint straight on because of the slow drying time nature of the paper.

Anyway, here are all of the spreads I completed in January. There are two spreads that I skipped just to keep current. I might go back and fill those pages once I’m all caught up. My end goal is to fill this baby up by the end of the year, even if I don’t truly art journal each day.

I absolutely adore this passage about Spring from Jeanette Winterson.

Happy Astrological New Year! xx

Baby boy is 15 years old today! He's no little boy anymore, but a fine old senior dog (actually I think technically he's geriatric). He's definitely slowed down quite a bit with his thyroid problem and just general old age. C19 has definitely been really hard on him. He was struggling with his hyperactive thyroid all through 2020 and no one could figure out why he was so sad and blah until mid-2021 when he got properly diagnosed. But since being on his meds, he's got that puppy spirit again! He does have some separation anxiety now and literally needs to be with people constantly. But that's a given especially since there's always someone home now for him to be with. But it's getting better though! The absolute highlight of his week though is going over to our neighbor's apartment every Tuesday as I tutor one of the girls in math. He gets SO happy then because he gets to play lol. HBD Joey! xx

Driftwood—documenting the signs and synchronicities I see in my life. I'm paying attention to these little coincidences of life. At the beginning of the year, I took @gabbybernstein's manifestation challenge and she had us choose something to be our sign so that whenever we see it, it's a sign from the Universe that what we want is actually on the way. I chose "seeing hearts" because it felt right and aligned with my guiding word for the year, Heart. Gabby asked us to keep a list of all the driftwood we collect, and my god have I been seeing hearts. And while what I desire might not happen right away, I feel like this is the Universe’s way of telling me to trust—to let go and trust.

Into the unraveling journal it all goes. Happy Friday loves. xx

Oh hey, shamelessly sharing this for #thursday3 because tbh I need a different type of photo to break up the feed...

✩ I've been feeling really lost and stagnant in life lately—actually for the last couple of months. Just going through the motions and the sheer monotony of life. I'm not used to doing the same sorts of things day in and day out (probably why I never had a 9 to 5 before). It's kind of boring and that makes me sad. To be fair, I am really blessed and I love my job, but it's a job and not my life, and while I thought getting my ideal job would make me happy, it hasn't. So I've been trying to figure out why that is and what's missing. (Also still going through old shit, but we won't talk about that again.)

✩ I've been playing around with a test WordPress installation on my server and building a little social network-like community on there. It looks super neat, but I honestly don't know if I'll do anything with it. I'm not very good at community building lol. The number of times I've tried, it just never builds as I hope. But like, I'm just really not very good at it! I'm more of a participant than a host. But this site is looking super cool!! It's basically Facebook but not. It's better and I haven't a clue if I should open it up to people to join. Would you actively participate in it?

✩ While I hate the motion of changing the clocks backward and forward, I'm loving the extra daylight! It's making me really happy to finish work around 6 pm and it still being light out. I can't wait for spring!

How are you loves? I hope everyone is well. Happy Thursday! xx

Documenting my One Little Word in my #unravelingjournal.

I love my word Heart for this year. If you've seen a particular Youtube video of mine, you would know why I chose it, but by documenting it in my journal and simply carrying it around with me I realized it contains multitudes!!! I love how I can visually document it so effortlessly since it's a symbol and a shape. I also embrace its many layers and meaning. I'm just in love with my word. She's a winner. xx

I shared a look at the January pages I made in my unraveling journal the other day on my new website tiffanyjulia.com. I've been working in this journal pretty much on the down low while I've been working on a new project. I quite like how some of these pages turned out. I'll share them all here in the coming days. xx
