Keiko Shibata: Hobonichi Graph Notebook (A5) - Who is it?

$24.23

This cover design is made in collaboration with an artwork by picture book author and illustrator Keiko Shibata.

“Who is it?” depicts cats noticing the sound of a guest that has come to their house and staring at the front door from the room door and even from outside the window. Are the cats in a welcoming mood, or are they trying to see if they can let the guest inside?A unique scene from their daily life is rendered with a warm touch of oil pastel. The back cover is as red as the door, with Keiko Shibata’s autograph printed.

The 3.7 millimeter graph paper is the same as that of the Hobonichi Techo Original. The color of the ink on the page changes (red / blue / green / purple) every 72 pages

This notebook has thin and durable Tomoe River paper and opens completely flat. You can use this notebook with extra freedom to draw pictures or brainstorm designs. Tomoe River is incredibly thin yet handles ink very well resisting bleedthrough and showcasing ink qualities such as sheen and shading.

The A5 size is 10mm thick and contains 288 pages. This gives you plenty of space to fill the notebooks to your heart’s content. Because the book sizes match the A5 Cousin Hobonichi Techo, you can use these notebooks with a techo cover.
