Hi everyone. Today's Techo News is about how Techo team member Iwakuro reflects on how he used his techo as a picture diary in 2020.

Iwakuro chose the A6 size Original as a techo to use as a picture book at home, and a Weeks for his work techo to carry around.



He started to write a diary last April because of the spread of the coronavirus (he started off with the April-start techo), and has continued since. At the beginning of 2021, he switched to the Sunny Days cover.





More than half of its contents are about his children and family. Up until July last year, he colored in what he had drawn with a fountain pen, but after realizing how hard it is to define a shape of something with just one line, and to minimize the effort needed to draw everyday, he switched to make use of the lines he drew in pencil as a draft.



























His normal style is to draw based on the photos he took, but by looking back at it with the sentences he has written alongside it, it reminds him of so many things in detail and has surprised him. He wants to continue writing this diary, hoping that it would turn into something meaningful for his family.



For his work techo, he uses a Weeks Mega with the Parachute cover. It's not too heavy even if he puts in some stationery, and is easy to carry around.
