Where everything is handmade…
I was reading this book titled The Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and this phrase caught my attention: Argue with your limitations and you get to keep them. It was then I realised that’s why I have so many limitations within me. Because in a way, I argue with them. I have so many reasons. …
Hello friends! First of all… let me apologise for I have gone missing in action for almost a month. Second, for not finishing my art journal project just as I promised. I truly feel bad for not accomplishing this on time. Moreover, for leaving you hanging. There’s no good excuse but let me explain what …
I know… I know… we don’t have much to-do lists except for our house chores or basic errands. Perhaps, most of our planners are empty for now since March. But it just feels so good to be with stationery stash, don’t you think so? To use our stickers, washi tapes and colored pens. Quarantine or …
And I’m almost done! Like one more to go and I can say, I was able to commit to this project. Unfortunately, I didn’t budget my time well on this latter part so my last one will be posted late. I kinda feel bad about it already but I’m telling myself not to be so …
It’s another art journal post here my friends. I hope you’re not getting tired of it yet. But just in case you want to see different post too, don’t worry, this series is about to end soon. It’s a bit exciting to know I’m a little close to my goal already. So, this is what …
Hi my lovelies. I cannot believe I’ve reached this far. This is my 7th journal for this month and I’m really proud I was able to commit to this. Although, too early to say. We only have 6 more days left for April. Anyway, this journal spread is my favourite so far. I love how …
Hello there… I’ve got another art journal to share with you, friends. This one is quite unique to all of the journals I’ve done because of the materials I used. I normally use acrylic and watercolor. Recently, gouache. But this time, I used highlighters. In my head, I’m saying, how weird is that? Yep! You …
I’m on to my 5th out of 10 art journals for this month, yay! And if you’ve been following around, you’ll definitely see the difference from my first 3 art journal spreads. I find my first 3 pages really chaotic. Truth be told, I wasn’t really sure where I was going then. I also noticed …
Last February, my son, Nicolas celebrated his first birthday. I made a DIY Woodland theme party for a small and simple family gathering. I like how this journal turned out because I just used merely all the decors from the party. I wanted to add the other decors I used from the party but it …
Hello there. Happy Easter. I am on to my 4th art journal spread for this month. Yay! But this one is already 5th on my Art Journal playlist, so sorry to confused you with the title. Anyway, if you’ve been following along, you’ll know how messy (alright, let’s just be frank – it’s ugly) my …
I’m trying to aim 10 art journal spreads before this month ends. It’s pretty ambitious, I know. But they say, dream big, lol. So far, I’m on to my 3rd one and still, my spreads look scattered and just messy. For now though, I’m trying not to mind it and I just keep reminding myself …
How are you coping up with the situation right now? Are you stress-eating? Watched almost all the series and movies on Netflix? I myself is also doing the same thing. But I’ve realised it doesn’t help me much when it comes to calming my emotions. So, I went back to art journaling. It’s my way …
It took me more than a year to post another mix media art journal. But I’m hoping I’d be able to keep up right now because this is my way of coping up during this time. If you’re feeling the same way too, you might want to try this too. Art journaling has helped and …
Hello there, my friend. How are you holding up? It’s a very difficult time for all of us, I know. Here in the Philippines, especially here in Davao City, it’s already been quiet for the past few days now. I’ve already lost count what day it is now since the community quarantine. It’s all good …
I had a slow week. Nothing much happening in the studio and shop, Artisan Paperie. It’s also a steady week for Yellow Hauz so just my usual weekly routine was happening. Although, I had a little project to make. A very good friend of mine, Ena commissioned me to do a canvas lettering for her …
