To celebrate the 15th Anniversary of MD Paper Products, MD invited 15 artists to get creative with the MD Notebook.Eachspecial-edition MD Notebook features the artists’ illustrations blind embossed on the covers. Adrian Hogan, an Australian-born, Tokyo-based illustrator designed this cover.

A Note from the Artist:

“My sketchbook is a place to explore ideas and record the world around me. I often draw my meals before I eat them as a way to appreciate the effort that goes into making them and almost a decade in Japan sushi is still my favourite to draw. The work I make for my clients is often based on my sketchbook work and the small ideas and observations become the direct basis for my finished work. MD Notebooks are so light and just the right size, I am rarely anywhere without one nearby – ready to capture inspiration!”

Midori’s MD Notebooks are known fortheir simple and minimalistic design, which is intentional in order to emphasize the quality of the paper andyour writing experience. Your pen will glide across MD’s specially formulated paper, which also prevents your ink from bleeding, ghosting, and feathering.
