- Today I'm sharing a very interesting sketchbook called the Onion Skin Journal. It is made of onion skin paper and the effects of pen and ink and watercolor is just so incredibly intriguing to me. Join me inside my new sketchbook just for this experimental process and let's see what it can do. It is a great example of the Art of Practice.

This is super cool! I LOOOVE crinkly paper. It's so satisfying turning pages of crispy paper. This has to be the best. I thought I was the only one who was in love with crispy, wrinkly, crinkly paper. Thanks for sharing this with us.
I know, right? It is just so loud and delicious all at the same time LOL
Oh my goodness, onion skin paper....and those leaves, absolutely gorgeous!! Proving once again that you are the queen of texture! Thanks so much for sharing all your new goodies. So much fun to watch your creative process! xo
I know right? The texture is incredible! The paper is so fun to work on and I'm glad to be able to share it with you today.
What a lovely way to the end the week. A cup of coffee, toast with home made fig jam and a new Kelly Hoernig video. Thank you. 💕💕
Fig jam sounds amazing, yummmmm! Glad you liked it and thanks so much for watching!
This is stunning, what a fantastic video, stayed till the end ☺☺
Thank you so much, it really was a fun one to create especially without expectations!
A fantastic journal and a beautiful project. Thanks Kelly.
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
I have to agree that paper crinkle/crunch sound is divine 💛
Yes it is and I love it so much, thanks for watching!
I remember this kind of paper when I was in my 20's, found thid company and I had to order. I love the sound as well.
@@gailday1551 it is such a pleasure to create on and turn the pages LOL
I’ve been using these ever since Remy launched. I have multiple sets of them from large to small. And it’s all about “the crinkle.” You can throw just about anything at them and it’ll come out beautifully. Welcome to the dark side, lol. 🌺
Ohhh, that is so good to know and I love your "welcome to the dark side" comment, thank you for watching!
How lovely! Thank you for sharing with us.
You are welcome and thanks for watching!
I love the 'mystery' of the underlaying pages. It is as if they are begging you to turn the page and see them in their glory. What a wonderful idea! I have some vellum that is too thin for my printer and I may see what I can do with that to use it - maybe in this way as a mini-book. Thank you as always for your inspiration. :)
Besides the intrigue and the crinkling sound, it does beg for the pages to be turned. I love that Sheila, thanks for your observations!
This paper sounds like vellum paper which I have quite a bit so maybe I will try this. Beautiful leaf painting 🎉
I have vellum which I think is heavier in weight but it does give the same crinkle sound. Thank you for watching!
❤ I Love experimenting and playing with 'atypical' art supplies. What you did with this paper / book is really exciting. What a wonderful Journal. ❤❤❤
I am usually not a big playing artist but this journal just called for it. Glad you found it exciting!
Thank you Kelly as usual it was a stunning video I wish I could get that book and I'm going to try I love it so much you are so inspirational I love how you explained everything and tell us every step of the way of what you're doing God bless you
It is an amazing journal and I'm so glad this video inspired you. Thanks so much for spending time with me In the Studio, I really appreciate it!
OK, Kelly...I can see the under layers being other seasons? Maybe for winter a branch with no leaves or small, brown curled ones. Then for spring, pale green buds and/or small bright green leaves, then of course full-on green ones for summer. Oh, I think I need an onion skin journal! We used to use onion skin writing paper to send letters overseas when I was a kid as "airmail" was so expensive back then!
I love this idea Bonnie especially with the seasons, so inspirational! Thanks for watching and I hope the paper brings back beautiful memories for you.
This is really a neat book, and I love the way you had the quote on the second page...it's perfect. The third page contributing its own colors kind of makes me think of your accordion-fold book, with each page taking part of the previous page and adding to the following page. Can't wait to see how you develop this, Kelly :)
I'm so happy you found it interesting as well. I have been playing and it is really giving me lovely results so far. Thanks for watching!
The way the color separates it looks metallic. Beautiful!
You are right, it does look metallic in its separation. Glad you enjoyed the experiment!
Oh the things we’d try making art with if we had infinite budget! 😄 I’m really glad you made this video, I’ve been using a sketchbook my sister gave me, which has some transparent pages in the middle. I tried using them but didn’t really like using graphite pencils or black pens. Now I have ideas to play with them more! 😊
You are so right. I bought this as a birthday present for myself just because I was so intrigued by it. Glad it inspired ideas on how to use the transparent pages and remember, just have fun playing, no pressure, just experimentation!
Hi Kelly! I am very familiar with the Onionskin Paper; I have filled a small notebook with birds to try out the paper, which is absolutely lovely for graphite, ink and fairly dry watercolor ….. Then I filled another journal A5 +_ 300 pgs. for my daily drawing sessions and it is also is completed! You made a great choice! I love how all the drawings are superimposing the ones done before them…
Lovely script, Kelly!
Hooray for texture!
Wow, 300 pages, how exciting is that and very impressive! Yes, the superimposing is one of the main reasons for purchasing the journal. It adds another layer of creativity to experience which I really enjoy.
This is lovely!
Thank you, it is just so fun and crinkly!
Love this!
It is pretty amazing, isn't it? The watercolor on top of it just takes texture to another dimension!
Here in America I am looking at the way the paint is puddling and looks like the Grand Canyon!
It does, what great observations, especially with the horizontal color lines!
Is onionskin paper even available any more, in a format other than expensive journals? I remember, as a child, sneaking into my mother''s desk and being fascinated by the texture of the papers, and those erasers that were round, with a brush attached.
I would think so but I don't know what the quality of it is nowadays. What I remember as a kid is it being a yellow tinted paper with wrinkles on the page.
Ha! I remember those erasers! Were they for typewriters or something? It's crazy the weird things that bring you back to your childhood! Thanks for that little memory. 🌻
@@polgara28 yes they were for typewriters, aren't you glad we don't need those anymore, the backspace key took over LOL
Will you be doing more videos as you work your way through this journal?
Yes I will. In fact, I am waiting for a dip pen to arrive, it will be the next installment of pages. Thank you for the interest in this lovely journal!
Enjoyed your video, questions , do you like this ink , I am a beginner at 75, bought the onion skin journal, like you I want to add a touch of art.. is there another ink you would like? I am a lefty so smearing is an issue.. maybe something that is water proof? The things I want to try is rubber stamping an image that my stamping ink is waterproof, the coloring not sure but I like your look, any help from you or your friends would be most welcome, thank you.
The Sketch Ink is waterproof, that is one of the reasons I bought it. I saw a lot of urban sketchers using it in their sketchbooks. I haven't experimented with any others ink as of yet so can't offer any suggestions at this time, sorry.
yeah that paper totally doesn't take watercolor well though lol
It was a real struggle, right? Sorry I had to put you through all the texture LOL
