Kawaii Art

Hi readers,

I went to my public library, in the new book section was a book called “Kawaii doodle class sketching super – cute tacos, sushi, clouds, flowers, and more” it is by Zainab Khan creator of pic candle. And because I love drawing, of course I had to check it out!

Once I opened the book, I just loved the kawaii style.

By, now you’d be wondering “what is kawaii?”

Kawaii

Kawaii kind of means cute or cuteness in Japanese, it can be used to name anything cute, but who knew it would become a famous art style, that clearly defines cute! Kawaii art can be a little different depending on who describes it, but most people would say  they are drawn with simple black outlines and colored with pastel colors and are  mostly inanimate objects, that have a rounded appearance, with a face (that looks very cute) they are sometimes drawn with oversized heads and quite smaller bodies! Their expressions are minimal. (The picture below of a  light pink strawberry is done by Zainab Khan all credits go to her for the picture of a strawberry)

I hope you like my kawaii drawing, it’s my first attempt. I kept the theme of artistic objects that most people use to make art! Some mini scenes have meaning and morals, or quotes! I did not look inside the book while drawing, this came out of my inspiration, while I was looking at my workspace at the crayons and the pencils that is how I got the idea! I may color this art piece, if so I’ll post it, but I am not sure. I would love it if you send me some kawaii pictures that you have hand-drawn! Oh, and by the way which is your favorite character comment down below!
