Do you have a way to organize your day to maximize your work ?

I consider the working progress of the work on that day and plan to work efficiently.

What tips would you give to improve productivity ?

I often draw nearly 100 pieces of Botanical art for a magazine feature and package.

When I work with such amount, I produce 10 pieces at the same time with collecting the same leaf colour of plant, etc.

There is no great difference in the production time of 1 piece and 10 pieces simultaneous production time. So without lowering the quality of all of the work in a week to 10 days, I can produce them in a short period of time.

In this working process, I frequently use photoshop. To produce a single leaf of deformed using the “distortion”, or created a lot of different leaves.

You’re better than your colleagues to :

While maintaining a high quality, I can create an image in a short time.

It is good at streamlining of work.

Always without creating a style and touch, because you can work in a neutral state, there is a versatility while maintaining the author of.

What is the best advice anyone has given you ?

Illustration is a profession.

What is your best tip for saving time ?

I don’t think that ‘there are only five minute’, even if there is only 5 minutes. I do think ‘there is still five minutes’.

For example the deadline of lot of work and overlapping exhibition schedules, impatient will derail a time management, and it causes a mistake.

Just change a mind set to ‘still have one more day’ and ‘there is still one hour’, in a positive direction, I can work calmly.

What is your routine start and end of the day ?

I don’t have any routine start, but end of the day I have posted one work everyday, by enclosing of ‘one piece by one day’ on Facebook.
