Hey, don't worry about having similar set ups. It's YOUR bullet journal if it works for you, use it. Beautiful painting.

Aww thank you so much for saying that 🥹🤍 I feel like it's a little bit of a shared experience, though, so I like to chance things up too! 😊
This painting is stunning and the whole theme is beautiful, just like cherry blossom: peaceful and delicate
All of your spreads turned out so beautiful! The colors are so soft and pretty to look at. I love your new spring collection. It is gorgeous! I recently received your collection in the mail and it was a very happy day to see your package all the way from Japan on my doorstep! I cannot tell you how amazing everything is! You really are so very talented. I love that your talent will continue to live on in my journal and my bullet journal for years and years to come!🌸💖🌸💖
I’m happy you talked about the cons of the Reverie notebook! On one hand, It is such a cool idea to have a bullet journal with paper that can handle true watercolor!! Plus the cover is insanely beautiful, better than any of the regular smooth paper bujos out there. On the other hand, you ended up drawing the watercolor spread on another notebook and then gluing a scanned copy anyway, so you didn’t really use the watercolor paper of this bujo. Yet the rough texture made your fine liners dry, and also frays your brush pens. Another challenge: drawing a masterpiece on dot grid paper makes it difficult to scan and convert it into printable stickers and other merch. It’s tough to find a notebook that does it all 😅
I LOVE your set ups, you are SO GIFTED! I really enjoy watching you paint, I can’t even draw but I love watching you. I will be visiting your shop and wishing you all the best in this new venture! I love your PET tape congratulations 😊

watching you paint is like watching someone do magic. Just when I'm sure it can't possibly get any better, you add a detail and boom! It's even more beautiful now. Love this spread, it's kicking my ass for not having completed mine yet 😂 (though of course it wont be even half as beautiful)
Wow!!! 😍

I think these pages are the prettiest I have ever seen. They are so beautiful to look at. I would be hesitant to write on them. P.S. Intention is spelled with a T, not an S.
Very beautiful indeed. I love how you paint with gouache.👏👏👏👏 Where did you inspire for this work?
@JournalAway

Thank you so much! 🥹🤍 I usually have an idea of what I want, then I go over an embarrasing amount of real pictures, paintings or digital art to see different color combinations, detail options, styles etc. And then I make a sketch where I combine lots of the features I like the most to create the final image 😄 But this time in general I was inspired by the idea of cherry blossoms in Japan 😊🤍
I've been following you for years and what I like about your channel is that you are always very inspiring. Idk how much of a burden it is to come up with such a set up month after month, but it definitely does not show! Have you studied art or graphics design?
@JournalAway

Wow thank you so much, it means a lot!! ❤️ I've never felt like it's a burden to come up with new setups, but sometimes I wish I had more time to do it, haha 😄 I'm completely self-taught in arts and graphic design! Nowadays you can learn a lot from the internet 😊
It is beautiful as always but for some reason the middle part of the video looks inaccurate, I wonder if the problem is my computer?

Ohh really? 🤔 I didn't notice anything while editing but it might be KZread or that the quality didn't render correctly for some reason? I will check this out! 😊
I love you video. It was inspired for me to change some thing, so I can enjoy again my Bujo what was abandoned last month an atmost again this month, but you give me some ideea to change that. 🫰🤗
