How to Draw Cute Stuff

Enter Planet Cute-where kids can make any drawing absolutely adorable!

Draw anything and everything-people, animals, and things-and make it CUTE. It's easy! Budding artists just have to pick up their pencils, pens, crayons, or gel markers and follow these step-by-step how-to sequences. They'll learn the basics of Japanese kawaii, which emphasizes simple, rounded shapes; faces with large eyes and sweet expressions; and personifying inanimate objects. They'll also master animals, mythical creatures, food, plants, vehicles, and more! Angela Nguyen is an artist trained in print, product, and motion graphics, known for her cute art style. She was the illustrator for Brent Campbell's Are Mommy and Daddy Like Me? and founder of the comic series Somewhere in the World. She lives in Round Rock, TX.
