Sketchbook Kaigi with April Wu

Ойын-сауық

This is a recording of our life Sketchbook Kaigi demo on Friday, January 20th at 12 pm Pacific Time on Developing Your Daily Art Habit with April Wu!
April is a stationery enthusiast, urban sketcher, and host of [@thestationerycafe]( thestatione... in Seattle, WA. She enjoys capturing her daily life through journaling and sketches in colorful ways.
During the sketchbook kaigi, April shared her lineup of sketchbooks and journals that she plans to use for 2023! April talked about her sketchbook practice and inspiration for you to develop daily art habits, from taking just 10-15 minutes to doodle about your day to food journaling and documenting your travels. In Japanese, a “kaigi” means a meeting or discussion and is an endearing term used by the stationery and journaling community to describe the process of reviewing and deciding on the notebooks we’d like to utilize for the new year.
We hope you enjoyed this demo!

    I LOVE the idea of putting a paper towel over a writing board, both under the pocket palette, held onto the TN by a clip. That's brilliant!

    Hello there looking forward to your video just found this channel I am hoping that you folks will give me the confidence to dive into all the journals that I have purchased over the years and actually paint something or write something in them I seem to have a fear of that even though I paint all the time thank you for addressing that if you would not mind God bless you

    Hi there! Getting started is the hardest part, it's something a lot of artist's struggle with. We hope this video helped to inspire you, and we're glad you're here!

    I never had any interest in getting a Hobonichi… until now. That looks like a fun way to keep yourself accountable! I will definitely get one next year!! Thanks for that idea!

    Wow. LOVE the TWSBI Eco converted to a fude nib. I love sketching with mine, but I'd love to bring a second pen that was not the standard sailor. Thanks for the idea!

    So inspiring! April, would you consider using only one side of each studio work page? Like if you ever wanted to exhibit your work!!! Also in your little palette what colors do you use? Two yellows, a gray, a purple..?

    I was wondering where April finds Hobinichi without lined pages. All the ones I see have lots of line.

    Etsy has lots of unlined inserts for notebooks, including some in watercolor paper
