Simple Japanese Cartoons

how to draw a baby penguin

Following the design I did for Batik in Textiles, i thought it very Japanese style.
I decided to look at Anime (which is the Japanese abbreviation of Animation) and Manga (which is the Japanese word for comics, used in the West to describe Japanese Comics).
As my design was a very simple smiley face i decided to look at simple Anime & Manga, particularly looking at facial expressions, something which is important in Manga Iconography.
I also looked on this anime animal website as it showed what Anime Animals looked like. This related to my work also with it being in a simple Japanese.
