 Goodreads Synopsis:

My Review: This art book is pretty explanatory if you look into it. (I will post a few pictures of the inside so you can understand what i mean) This artist is one of my favorites! I just love the adorable little girls and animals she paints. I wish I had enough money just to spend on one of her products. I believe I would buy one of the animal prints, because they are kind of kawaii looking to me and of course they are adorably cute! I was so excited to receive this book to review. One reason I needed/wanted her book is she gives you tips and shows steps on how she draws and paints the certain images she chose for this book. The second reason is so I can stare at her artwork in my own hands. If you are into learning this style of drawing and painting, it is one of the best books to grab. I love the colors she uses in her paintings also. I believe most of them are watercolor, and I just enjoy watercolor. If you are an artist looking for new ideas and inspiration on doing your own artwork, hurry up and grab this book! I believe it will be worth it.
