Thank you all so much for the kind words and support. I realize this video is long and you both honor and humble me by giving me so much of your time. I appreciate you and hope you have a wonderful day!
I just found your videos and linked up to your Instagram! I absolutely love your drawings paintings and your enthusiasm. Your positivity and your imagination and the quality of your art are a blessing to us all. Thanks so much for sharing.❤️
What a fun flip thru. Impossible to pick a favorite page, it's all so very lovely. But I especially loved the tiger's eye. Thanks for sharing and have a fabulous 2025!!
Incredible talent. Absolutely amazing sketchbook. Definitely one of the BEST sketchbook tours I’ve ever seen. I admire your creativity, dedication, passion and persistence. You absolutely inspired me to draw and paint daily.
Wow, this is incredible!! It's all stunning. I use a Hibino as my EDC planner (all fountain pen, no stickers or washi) and it's so exciting to see you use it as an art book!
Thank you. Yea, I saw another creator show off her purchase in 2023, but I never saw it filled. Its fun as a sketchbook. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Absolutely Wonderful art. I am truly moved on how you structured your pages...birds and coordinating flowers in the front of the book then doodle on one page with a main subject on the opposing page. Thanks so much for the tour!
I know this year just started but I think that , " my birds don't teet, they roar," is gonna be the best thing I hear all year lol 😂 Thank you for sharing your amazing art!
I just found you and LOVE your work! I immediately subbed. Just for your edification: there is technically no such species as a black panther. Panther is a sort of generalized word for cat (from genus panthera). The cat that many refer to as a black panther is actually melanistic jaguar or leopard. I can't wait to binge watch your channel!
So inspiring. I especially love your animal portraits and the stippled and isograph portraits. I need to look into those pens. I dont use pens usually. (My apostrophe on my keyboard is not working reliably.)
The Isograph performs a lot like a fineliner only with a metal tip. I used an 03 in this books which is small and made some of the illustrations take longer, lol. Good luck with your apostrophe and I hope you have a wonderful day!
I’m learning to draw and paint a little, and I was watching you going through your entire journal. You’re inspirational. Your birds roar! It looked like you had so much fun exploring…You showed that there’s no limit to imagination and creativity. I enjoyed your drawings and paintings. Thanks for sharing. I’m going to doodle! ❤
This is absolutely amazing , I Really enjoyed watching this. May I ask how long does it take you to do a drawings like this? Have a great and creative year 😊
I was looking on Amazon for a Midori hibino "sketchbook", i understand now, its a diary. I love the way you've illustrated it, superbe bird paintings. Now in awe seeing the rest of your illustrations!! ❤ Thanks Jo in France 🇫🇷
I also love Midori's hibino notebook and there aren't many other people who use it, so I was happy to find your video! It felt like I was looking at a wonderful art book and I felt very happy ✨ I will use your notebook ideas as reference 🙏
just found you and i'm so amazed! did you do one page EVERY day this last year?! So amazing!! Cant wait to see what you do this year but i'm definitely going back and watching all of your videos.
I am curious how there can be no bleedthrough or even faint ghosting with ink and tombow, et al, on this paper, which they, themselves, describe as thin... what am i missing? I love your work and your happy attitude!
There was some bleeding with reds, pinks, and when I added water over the ink. Tomoe River paper is double coated which makes it perfect for inks, just know that because of the coating the drying time can take longer. I hope you have a wonderful day!
That would be a lot of work to put together. Maybe someday I'll do a book of. my favorite illustrations with notes. Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day!
No, I don't need to treat the paper. Tomoe River paper is double coated which makes it perfect for inks, just know that because of the coating the drying time can take longer. I hope you have a wonderful day!
@ ah got it! So is there a pen or ink you would recommend for less ghosting and bleed through? I want to use fountain pen, but I still see a lot of ghosting and some bleed through
I'm so glad I found this video. I quickly started following on instagram - you are an inspiration and your motivation and dedication to working your craft is amazing.
Awesome video. First time watching your channel. You gave me great examples on how to use these supplies. I have most of the same art supplies. Now i have fun new way to experiment. Are you going off of pictures? There was great variety!
I used two bottled inks in this book both by Ferris wheel Press: Majestic Maple Syrup (light brown with small particle shimmers) and Once Upon a Time | The RIbbiting Pond (turquoise with small particle shimmers). The shimmers in these inks make them bad for fountain pens (they'll clog) so, I used a glass dip pen or a paintbrush to apply these. I hope this helps and I hope your day is wonderful!
Thank you all so much for the kind words and support. I realize this video is long and you both honor and humble me by giving me so much of your time. I appreciate you and hope you have a wonderful day!

just found you and i'm so amazed! did you do one page EVERY day this last year?! So amazing!! Cant wait to see what you do this year but i'm definitely going back and watching all of your videos.
Yes, I did. It was a very fun challenge. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Gorgeous and diverse art work👏🏼Is the Tamoe river paper 52 or 68 gsm?? Thank you, Miranda 🇦🇺
Why not publish the sketchbook with the art, notes, all beautiful!,❤
That would be a lot of work to put together. Maybe someday I'll do a book of. my favorite illustrations with notes. Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Wow, what a pleasure to view...so inspiring...I just bought the 2025 :)
Have you used the Elegant Writer? I’ve seen people get some really great effects with it.
No I haven't, they look super fun though. I love the gothic calligraphy looks that chisel nibs can create. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Combo bird/florals great look - art explosion 💥 🌸🦋🖋️
my birds don’t tweet they roar 🐯 animals birds& florals 🍃🎨
Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day!
Amazing
Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day!
Beautiful work- do you sketch first for the portraits?
I don't, but I probably should. Then my eyes in portraits would be more aligned, lol. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Do you treat the paper before drawing on it? The ghosting and bleed through is non existent on the back of the page?! It’s amazing
No, I don't need to treat the paper. Tomoe River paper is double coated which makes it perfect for inks, just know that because of the coating the drying time can take longer. I hope you have a wonderful day!
@ ah got it! So is there a pen or ink you would recommend for less ghosting and bleed through? I want to use fountain pen, but I still see a lot of ghosting and some bleed through
so cute ☺️
Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day!
You should put all the pictures in a slide show! That would be really cool
It would be cool. I need to make some time to do more of those things too. I hope you have a wonderful day!
What is isograph? Your drawing and inking is sooo beautiful ❤
It is one of the technical pens Mae by ROtring. It's basically a refillable fineliner pen. Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day!
very nice whale and flowers at 1:06:43 always like to see the sketchbook videos, makes me want to draw. Similar thing happening at 1:13:01 neat idea
Impressive, whatsapp a talent and creatività.

What is Ferris ? Maple. Is it a bottled ink?
I used two bottled inks in this book both by Ferris wheel Press: Majestic Maple Syrup (light brown with small particle shimmers) and Once Upon a Time | The RIbbiting Pond (turquoise with small particle shimmers). The shimmers in these inks make them bad for fountain pens (they'll clog) so, I used a glass dip pen or a paintbrush to apply these. I hope this helps and I hope your day is wonderful!
ВЫ очень талантливы! Очень интересные работы.
Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day! Спасибо
Cool!
Thanks and I hope you have a wonderful day!
How about using gesso to prime the pages beforehand?
❤
Thanks and I hope you have a wonderful day!
all of your drawings are lopsided
I hope you have a wonderful day.
