Kawaii Art Drawing Intermediate Level (8-12 Years Old)
For those who have participated and completed Level 1.
WHAT IS KAWAII DRAWING?
The famous trend of Japanese culture, the Kawaii trend, which is always based on looking cute and adorable, has shown its influence all over the world today. Kawaii drawings are cute drawings that have spread from Japan to all countries of the world. Kawaii drawings, which initially consisted of cute drawings and romantic themes, now also include funny drawings intended to make people laugh. Even among funny drawings, funny cartoon series have been produced that try to make the audience laugh, without straying from the aim of being cute.
Giant eyes, round shapes, and simple features are the hallmarks of one of the cutest forms of art. Known as "kawaii," from the Japanese word for "cute," it has been embraced as a subculture that can be found worldwide. Scalable graphics perfectly match the graphic and 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 many pop culture trends such as art, TV animation, lifestyle, music, and fashion. It is a whole aesthetic that captures the spirit of childlike, playful innocence and adoration. Pokemon such as 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 usually easily identified as characters with minimal facial features, drawn in pastel colors and simple black lines with rounded edges and a youthful appearance.
