With a big smile and a high ponytail tied with a ribbon, this young samurai girl stands in simple layered armor with a wide knotted sash. A sheathed sword rests at her hip, and a branch of cherry blossoms floats above her while a few petals drift down. Bold, thick outlines and roomy shapes keep it easy for little hands aged about 2 to 5. Color the blossoms soft pink and the armor bands in alternating red and gold for a bright, happy look.
Hand on her hip, a confident young samurai stands in a peaceful Japanese garden. Her laced armor plates, knotted sash, wide trousers and sandals are all clearly drawn, and a sheathed sword hangs at her side. Cherry blossom branches arch overhead, petals float through the air, and the background shows a stone lantern, an arched wooden bridge over a pond and a temple roof. A lovely page for kids aged 5 to 10. Try watercolor pencils for the blossoms and the pond, then blend them with a damp brush. Prints on A4 or US Letter.
Here a graceful samurai woman, with blossoms tucked into her hair bun, stands on a stone path holding the hilt of her sheathed sword. Her laced armor sits over a kimono and wide trousers printed with cherry flowers. Behind her, a tall pagoda, a stone lantern, a curved bridge over a stream and a snowy mountain peak complete the scene, all framed by blooming branches. The fine lines suit older kids and adults who enjoy patterns. Pick a limited palette of crimson, black and soft pink to give the armor a classic lacquered feel.
Patterns cover every surface of this dense page, from the samurai's floral armor and tasseled hair ornaments to the blossoms crowding the sky. She stands with her swords beside a smiling fluffy dog wearing an ornate collar, while a crane wades near a pond where a koi swims. In the distance, a pagoda, a curved bridge, a stone lantern and a mountain under a rising sun fill the background. Experienced adult colorists will love the challenge. Work from light to dark with fine-liner markers, keeping the background pale so the figure pops.
