There is something so magical about dawn and dusk colors.

For just a few moments, they can stop us in our tracks and completely transform the world around us.

In my latest collection inspired by Claude Monet’s work, a series of journals carries that same feeling of wonder and magic captured at dusk on his beloved Lily Pond.

A few are still available in the shop if you would like to take a look. You’ll find the link in bio. ✨

A different season is beginning inside the studio. ✨

For the next couple of weeks, my days will be filled with preparing what comes next. Cutting watercolor paper, trimming binder boards, organizing fabrics, and slowly planning the Summer Collection that will arrive in July.

Before that, ShadowLight Binding will take a short studio pause starting in June.

So if there’s an art journal currently in the shop that you’ve been thinking about, this is a wonderful time to take another look before the break.

And if you have a custom project in mind, or any questions at all, feel free to send me a DM. I’ll be happy to help. ✨

This collection took me quite a while to bring together, and it became one of my favorite collections I’ve ever created.

These are the last 12 journals available.

Each one is hand bound with artist-grade, 100% cotton watercolor paper including Fabriano Artistico, Arches, and Saunders Waterford, in a variety of formats and paper textures.

If Monet’s work speaks to you, and one of these journals includes your favorite watercolor paper, I truly hope you’ll find the one meant for your creative journey. 💛

When I started creating these watercolor art books,
I was simply trying to make something I couldn’t always find for myself.

A book with beautiful, reliable paper,
designed to open flat and feel welcoming.

Art journaling, for me, is
a moment where the mind settles and creativity can breathe.

That quiet feeling is what guides everything I make.
And when the time feels right,
these books are there for you too!

The “Winter Collection” is entering its final stages, and today I’m sharing a small behind-the-scenes look at the closures.

Some books will have elastic closures in different styles, and one will feature SLB magnetic clasp — a great detail that always feels special to craft.

These photos show the progress of the collection as it comes together, step by step, before the full release in my shop.

You can already find the smaller, compact, chunky format available in the shop if you’d like to take a look tap the
