Kawaii Art Drawing Intermediate Level (8-12 Years Old)
For those who have participated and completed Level 1.
WHAT IS KAWAII DRAWING?
The Kawaii movement, a famous trend in Japanese culture that always relies on a cute and cuddly appearance, has now gained worldwide influence. Kawaii drawings have spread from Japan to countries around the world. Initially consisting of cute and romantic themes, Kawaii drawings now include comical drawings designed to make people laugh. Even within these comical drawings, comical cartoons have been produced that aim to make viewers laugh, while still maintaining the same cuteness.
Giant eyes, round shapes, and simple features are hallmarks of one of the cutest forms of art. Known as "kawaii," from the Japanese word for "cute," it has become a globally embraced subculture. Scalable graphics perfectly complement the graphic, bold style.
WHAT IS KAWAII?
"Kawaii" is a Japanese word and concept that translates broadly to "cuteness" in English. It emerged in Japan in the 1970s, expressing itself in numerous pop culture trends, including art, television animation, lifestyle, music, and fashion. It's a complete aesthetic that captures the spirit of childlike, playful innocence and adoration. Pokémon like Hello Kitty and Pikachu epitomize Kawaii, with their ability to elicit the warm, happy, and affectionate reactions people typically feel for cute baby animals. Kawaii art is typically easily identified as characters with minimal facial features, drawn in pastel colors, and simple black lines with rounded edges and a youthful appearance.
