1. How old are you?
I am now 19 years old
2. Did you go to any art school or academy?
No. I took Studio Arts in senior high school. It's not from that class that I learned evreything I know. I did learn new things from the class, but not to do with fashion illustration or manga drawings. I went to a regular high school, so it doesn't specialise in art.
3. How long have you been drawing?
I'm pretty sure I started drawing at 6. I got into manga drawings when I was 11 years old, I started teaching myself how to draw manga when I was 13 years old. I started developing an interest in fashion design also when I was 11, but I pursued that interest or taken it further at the age of 14. So, I would say I started drawing fashion illustration at the age of 14.
4. How do you draw the models? Do you use any templates?
I started out by tracing models from magazines which is harder than it sounds, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. Then of course, I searched all types of videos on CZcams and some sites as well on Google, which unfortunately, I don't remember. How I learned to draw my models is using the 9-Head technique.
5. Where do you get your inspiration?
I get my inspiration from music, photos on Instagram, Tumblr fashion trends, things that I love. There are times where I am just in an Artist's Block and I feel really brain dead where I can't draw. Or I force myself to draw and it never turns out to be something that I like.
6. Do you have any links or books you can recommend?
Definitely! Fashion Illustration by Anna Kiper and Fashion Poses for Fashion Illustrators by Sha Tahmasebi are two books that I own at the moment. I'm hoping to get more. These two books are very helpful if you're a beginner or even if you want to be a bit more advanced.

I appreciate how direct this DIY video is. thank you. So many have the first 10 minutes of talking, rambling, tangents, etc which I find HIGHLY annoying. Yours was very pleasant to watch. I hope to make one soon.
thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it :)
Kimberly Johnson yes it is so beautiful
I made it, I didn't have enough leather in one colour so I pieced three pieces together with copydex and made it like yours after that, except I made some holes on the front to thread elastic through for holding pen pencil and waterbrush, and inside I made a felt pocket for a card with blobs of watercolour paint on. I really like it, thank you for inspiring me with your video
perfect tutorial, thank you. I'm not a planner person so the idea for a mixed media type travel journal was new for me and I needed this help.
I'm a publish writer and always need paper with me for note taking and this will be a great idea ! Thank you for taking the time to share this great idea!
Thank you for such a clear, easy to follow video. It's great, and has inspired me to make my own!
So simple to follow! Thanks for showing people how to do it step by step (surprising how many other ones fail to do so). Best thing is we can use existing tools to make these rather than buy one from the shop and never use it again.
This was truly incredible I never would have thought of this incredibly work
What a great vid. Clear instructions with perfect step by step video. Cannot wait to make one. Thanks!
Best video I've seen so far on how to make a TN...I will be making a few for clients, I know they will love your method best..great looking TN!
OMG thank you so much! That means a lot :3
This tutorial was amazing ! You're really underrated for being such a good and helpful artist! I hope to be as good as you when I'm older. Keep doing what you're doing!!!
+sim Laya thank you so much! It really means a lot xD
I love this tutorial! Thank you for making this video. It is easy to follow, very well explained and the result is beautiful.
thank you so much :)
Thank you for sharing. I really like that it's not a running monologue be for the actual diy. Very easy to follow. I'm going to make one for myself.
I've recently discovered the Midori traveler's notebook and I became fascinated in it, especially since I recently began writing a journal (and I have a soft spot for leather). But, being the thrifty person I am, I wanted to have a look into the design to see if I can make my own instead of paying £30 for one off Amazon. So I found your video, and as I suspected its a simple concept with great potential. Great video, informative and practical. Now I just need to go around local charity shops to pickup all the materials.
+DJ Shuffle thank you :) and i hope your traveler's notebook turn out well :D
Well done and thank you for doing it yourself and finally accessible💖
Beautifully presented
OMG I LOVE this!! Thank you so much for sharing. With this you can take out the books when they are full! So genius
Asian Mockingbird I'm glad you liked it and I know right! It's originally by the Japanese so it definitely is a genius idea XD
Great video! INstructions easy to follow, and the idea is so lovely. Thanks a lot!
Really perfect demo! Very clear instructions, great walk through, and a really lovely notebook. Thank you very much.
+Vicki Wood thank you so much! :)
This is really cool!! Definitely something that I will keep in mind when I get a job teaching art in the near future. These would make awesome sketchbooks for students. Thanks for sharing!!
bloody brilliant
Woah you're very talented! I was thinking of revamping my old notebook thank you!
Thank you for this lovely DIY.
I really enjoyed watching and I love the final result!
Your NoteBook is so cute!
have a fab sunday!
I already have everything I need to make one of these, so I'm definitely going to try to make one today, thank you
This is just perfect for me! Thanx!!
Hello! My friend linked me to this video, and I'm so very glad that he did. Your video used simple explanations and materials and helped me a lot since other videos show a whole range of materials I probably couldn't afford to buy or find where I live. great work and thank you so much!
Great video! Easy to follow and understand. Thanks for sharing.
I really need to try this!!
I'm definitely gonna try this! OMG YOURE SO CLOSE TO 100K IM SO HAPPY YOU DESERVE IT!
Gabriela R Definitely send me a photo if you do :D and thank you XD
I plan on doing this for my friend and I just love this tutorial. It's so perfectly understandable and not as complicated as some other Journal DIYS.
+Cimonay thank you so much! and that's so thoughtful of you to do that for your friend.. have fun with the DIY! :D
I love the idea of the book
Wow this is really cool!
New subscriber here. That was the easiest to follow instructions and cost efficient way to make a fauxdori. Thank you so much.
thank you so much! I'm glad you liked the video ^_^
This is a great tutorial. I love it! Making one of these doesn't seem so terrifying anymore. :D
I usually can't stand to watch "long" DIY videos, but I really enjoyed watching yours! The music was so soothing and you described everything so clearly!
+Cassaundra. Ann Thank you so much! I'll try to shorten my DIY videos in the future for sure xD
Zyra Bañez Don't worry about the length! It just bugs me when people make long videos and just talk and talk. But your videos have the perfect combination of music, voice overs, and content of video!
Cassaundra. Ann oh haha thanks! I'll keep it in mind then for future videos! :D
I will definitely try this! Thanks!
Faith Fountain awesome! send me a photo if you do :D
i still love your art you are gifted
what an amazing video, I will make my own traveler's notebook because of you!! Thank you!
really useful and easy for everyone~ THX Zyra
It's so good. Thank you very much for sharing.
+Arte Con Clase thank you ^_^
Thank you for such an informative video - your voice is lovely, very professional, and the instructions were very clear. You've inspired me to try this myself - thank you!
THANK YOU!! :D
Love your first DIY Video. I expect more DIY in the future. 💋💗
Thank you for this wonderful video!
You did a beautiful job.
I really love this
This was a great tutorial and your voice was very clear and understandable
+Emily Jones aw thank you :)
I made myself one yesterday. I've been looking at buying one for the longest, but I can't justify paying 60 bucks for a sheet of folded leather given my current life situation. I found that spray-on adhesive is a lot easier to work with than tape and glue, but I imagine any sort of adhesive would work. Thanks for uploading this video!
Akagism Awesome! I definitely know what you mean. I would think spray adhesive would work better, but I didn't want to buy one since I had the tape and glue already at hand :)
This is really cool! ❤️ And you're so close to 100k! 😱
WishAndWear Thank you for the support! I'm actually really excited for it to hit 100K AHHHHHH XD
i really love this
Brilliant!!! I'm going to try this! :)
Thank you for such a precise video. Just what I was looking for, though, I want to add two more signatures than you have. It is easy to figure that out since your video was so great :)
I appreciate this I do this step by step but it's a really DIY and after I finish this DIY it is so nice and so beautiful... Keep it up sis...
I love it!
Amazing🙌🏽. I like it, imma try it one day☺️
Wow it is so cool! I wanna do it 😊 thanks for this tutorial!!
Thumbs up. This is just what I had in mind for a back pocket notebook. (Too bad I had to wade through six other vids before this one.) I make my own inserts now, so I'll dimension the cover to match. Best Idea = the pocket divider!
Love it!
one of the easy videos i have seen Thanks
wow it is so cool!
100 000 subscribers!! Congratulations!!😱😱
Ida Marie THANK YOU ^_^

First DIY yay Love this video
Femmie Meijboom YEP :D THANKS
YOURE WELCOME :D In the past few days, I had more than 8 videos of you in my to watch list! Watched them all hahaha :x
Think, maybe you could make the corner cutting a little bit easier. Provided your scissors can clip through several layers of leather/vinyl, that is. Fold the cover in half, then in half again, so all four corners are on top of each other, then clip your corner, and it will look the same on all four corners.
thank for wonderful tutorial
I Love it
Thank you !!!
Thank you
Perfect. thank you

Great video, and I love your voice. It isn't that easy sometimes to figure out all the tech stuff, I sure have problems with it. But I love it for one, very clear and to the point, ( not my strong point Ha! ) Great job!

This came out great. I didn’t follow how you attached the pink notebook with the pocket inserts. Can you clarify that, where did you attach the elastic after tying the knot and wrapping in through the notebook?
I have to make one! :O
Yay you got 100,000 subbies!!!!
Dempsey Bradshaw Thank you so much for the support!
