Review Quotes:
Library Journal

"Japanese manga creator/visual artist Kutsuwada (illustrator, The Book of Five Rings) teaches Kawaii drawing techniques in this book of more than 50 full-color illustrations. This fun and easy-to-follow title guides readers through basic drawing tools and various coloring options, such as watercolor paints, marker pens, and colored pencils. The projects themselves--each with 10 steps or fewer--start with basic shapes and then build upon them, using additional simple shapes and lines. The book is divided into nine Kawaii categories: expressions (smiling, shocked, confused, and more), accessories, monsters, animals, birds, fantasy, food, tea parties, and people. The guided projects are inclusive of many items, such as a phone, handbag, vampire, panda, penguin, mermaid, teapot, cupcake, princess, and more. The thorough, step-by-step instructions include clear pictures. There are plenty of suggestions for coloring and enhancing the drawings, but readers will find there is plenty of room for creativity and customizing their work.VERDICT Both novices and advanced artists can greatly benefit from this title filled with whimsical and adorable Kawaii drawings."
