I don't think the cover painting looks imbalanced. I think because you have a one point perspective the focal point remains strongly in the centre of the painting. It's difficult to even notice that one side is busier than the other because it's not a primary focus. It looks gorgeous as always, I promise 🥰 I always love your paintings 👏
Aww thanks for saying that 🥹❤️ You're so kind, thank you!
What a lovely setup *as always* , Anna! 😍😍 your cover painting with a studio ghibli vibe is absolutely incredible! I love the simplicity and elegance of the rest of your spreads 🫶
Awww thank you so much, dear! 😍 You're so sweet!
Aaah I'm so happy I'm not the only one seeing Ghibli style 🙈 don't you think it looks like the house in Totoro ?
Sooo beautiful - as usual!! I love the hedgehogs, and the cover page painting gives me the best cottage core vibes! Makes me want to put on my gingham dress and do some gardening haha!
Hahaha sameee though I don't even have a garden 🤣 Thank you so much, Hedda! 🥰❤️
thank you for mentioning that it took you several painting sessions to make this wonderful picture. I'd love to paint and draw more but I'm very impatient and want everything to be done in one session. I need to rewire my thinking about art and accept that good things take time and it's okay to paint one thing for several days.
Your cover page is so beautiful and well worth the many hours you spent on it. The hedgehogs are super cute.
I don’t think the cover painting looks unbalanced. I feel that since it is the right-hand side of the spread you need to have more mass and interest happening near the midpoint of the two-page spread. Particularly since the left-hand side of the spread is so open and white.
Thank you for sharing such a lovely design! 🙂
Such a cute, whimsical theme. For April, I am doing a sunrise/set theme for Ramadan🌙
That sounds absolutely beautiful! 😍Thank you so much! 🥰
Waah it's absolutely beautifull ! 🥹
You won't believe me but I was litteraly watching the theme of hedgehogs you did before a few days ago and I was just wondering if you'll do a similar theme 🙈 I couldn't wait your video haha ! I'm happy you did and that you followed what you wanted to do !
I absolutely love that kind of painting style (reminds me of Monet), I don't know it has a special calming vibe and it's super pretty and cute 🥹 So don't worry, it doesn't look at all messy and it doesn't look unballanced at all ☺️
By the way it reminded me of the adorable house in Totoro from Studio Ghibli 💜
It was also really interesting to see the process on the computer 😊 I use digital art and this defenitly gave some ideas and tips !
I really love the colors, style and drawings, probably one of my (many) favorites 🙈 and your handwriting is so beautifull 😭
If I can ask you, can you tell me which printer you use ? Because mine doesn't do such clean prints 🥲😂
Sorry for this huge comment, but I thought you needed some answers and prising since your art is amazing ☺️
And thank you 🙏🏻🥹
Soo cute :) It's nice that you somewhat "recycled" an old theme but it's still different. There is so much improvement, and I really love your style :)
Haha thank you so much! 🥰 I usually have more ideas that fits one theme so sometimes even recycling creates a pretty different end result! 😄
Omggg just seeing the first painting 😮🥰😍😍😍 it is so stunning!!!
So sweet and whimsical… and turquoise!! In love 😍
Thank you so much! 🥰
Such a feminine delicate floral theme - lovely! And adorable hedgehogs too! Thank you for sharing!!! 🌱🍃🌺🦔☘️❤️❤️❤️✨
The only ones considering digital illustration cheating are the ones that are truly ace at it (like yourselves). It’s a true art and I’m sure plenty of classical painters would consider painting to be cheating if they were asked to make a digital illustration, because they may be more proficient at painting. That being said, your painting looks absolutely gorgeous! It’s such a joy to watch your videos. Thanks you so much!
Everything about this spread is so gorgeous! I love the colours, the delicate pen drawings and the painting is just fabulous 😍
Thank you so much!! 😍🤍
I don't know why I'm watching this b/c I've never kept a journal in my life haha But that painting is beautiful and I love the hedgehogs. I'm sad I found this too late and missed out on some of the cute goodies! I might still get some stickers tho.
Ohohoooo, ghibli! I love that and I'm inspired so much! Thank you kindly. 🎉
As always this was enchanting. 🥰🥰🥰
I actually loved the turquoise boarder, I think it would make a great washi tape if you haven't already thought about that.
Wow! This is stunning! Love the hedgehogs! 😍
I always say that I’m enchanted by your paintings. And this time too, your cover page is just breathtaking. I love the details, and how you finetune them later, and all the elements that you put on all the pages. I always look forward to your videos. 💜💜
I'm glad you posted this video as I just watched a really sad video before this and I didn't want to go to sleep all sad
edit: omg your lil critters are so cute! agh!! your shop is very nice too :D
Awww I'm happy this helped you out! 😄 Thank you so much! 🥰
New subbie here, absolutely love this months theme. Your art is stunning! And your handwriting is to die for. Thank you for sharing!❤
This setup looks so simple yet so beautiful. I love it. Thank you for showing your art in steps for us to learn from you.

Such a gorgeous theme Anna!! I always enjoy watching you paint your cover pages ❤ The hedgehogs were such a cute addition to this theme. The colour palette was so soothing and reminded me of spring 😊 Great video as always 😊
I bought this collection so quickly it’s not even funny! Absolutely stunning! I love it. Looks like an English country garden. (Not mine unfortunately 😂).

Ohh I'm so happy to hear that bit was interesting! 😍 You're so sweet, thank you so so much! ❤️
@@JournalAway You’re welcome! ☺💖
Ahhh perfect timing! I’m gonna make my Bujo right now too :D
Haha yayy! 😄 I wish you a relaxing planning session 🥰
Thank you so much! I’ve just finished your video and I have to say, you really grew into your spreads! I love the way this setup came out, and I’ll probably try out the flower designs when I find some empty space. Wonderful setup! Happy April 💐
I loved that goal planning page! I have no time or skill to do a lot of decorations lol, but now I'm excited to try some borders like that!
Thank you so much! 🥰 I'm sure you could do it!! ❤️
❤
Magnifique
Thank you so much! 🤍
Please add closed captions :D It makes it easier to hear
I believe that the closed captions appear automatically after the video has been up for a while! I always enable it but it just takes a while 😅
@@JournalAway Thank you :D You always do a great job in your bujo! Love watching you!
Wooow! It's so beautiful and cute 😍💕 I really love the font you're writing your headlines. What is it?
Thank you so much! 😍 I wrote in the video somewhere but I believe it was called Boheme Floral!
@@JournalAway Thank you, I missed it in the video. I only was focused on your beautiful layouts 🥰
Ok so am I the only person that thought of the first book of A court of thorns n roses by Sarah j Maas. This looks like the description of Tamlins’ house
Awww thank you so much! 😄❤️ I've read the ACOTARs but didn't even realize while creating this 😊
From where is your green stencil and clear ruler please?
The clear ruler is one that I have had for probably 10-15 years so I don't remember where it's from 😅 But I'm sure you can find a large clear ruler similar to it from any of your local stationery stores (or online).
I'm sorry but I'm not sure what you mean by the green stencil? If it's the brass ruler, it's linked in the description! :)
What type of scanner do you use because mine always messes up my art. TIA
I use the Canon Canoscan Lide 400 but it messes up my art too 😅 I need to be so careful to evenly push the art piece to the scanner to not get blurry spots (especially with watercolor paintings since the paper is slighlty bent). The colors are always messed up so I correct them in Photoshop. I usually need to in increase the contrast, brightness and fix some color settings too.
Which printer do you use to print your color palettes? Because I get scratches and the color does not look uniform
Oh no! :( I use a Canon Pixma Pro 100 for everything I print (including shop items). It's a pretty expensive printer but I used to have very good results with Canon Pixma TS8350.
I still sometimes get small lines if the color is very dark but not to the point that it would bother me much. Something I have realized is that the printing errors are often caused by the inks running low.
@@JournalAway thank you so much For give You the time to answer to me! I realy love your videos! You are so creative!
could you make your videos a little louder please.
I've increased the volume a bit for the latest videos! I hope it's a little bit better in those 😊
