Lantern-Lined City Hardcover Journal | Hand-Painted Asian-Themed Art Notebook | Paintings by Mimi

For the places that stay with us—and the stories we collect along the way.

Featuring an original hand-painted work by Mimi, this hardcover journal captures the warmth and energy of a lantern-lit city street. Glowing lights float overhead while colorful storefronts, flowers, architecture, and reflections lead the eye down the street, creating the feeling of wandering somewhere familiar and new at the same time.

There’s a sense of possibility, discovery, and movement in the painting—the kind of street that makes you want to keep walking just to see what might be around the next corner. It makes a fitting cover for recording travels, everyday observations, memories, plans, dreams, and whatever comes next.

Part of our Paintings by Mimi Collection, the design began as an original physical painting created by Mimi, Kaili’s aunt and a member of the Mei Lee Productions family. We photograph her paintings and reproduce the artwork on select products, preserving the expressive brushwork and texture of the original.

Inside are 150 lined pages for journaling, travel memories, creative writing, notes, plans, or everyday thoughts. Perforated pages make it easy to remove a sheet when needed.
