Nihon no Shiki Nurie no Tabi: Utsuroiyuku Kisetsu o Kanjiru, Utsukushii Wa no Design(Japanese)

A coloring book of Japanese designs for the four seasons. It includes traditional patterns based on motifs such as paulownia and hollyhock, plants such as cherry blossoms, gentian, bush clover and adonis, and seasonal items such as New Year decorations, goldfish and carp streamers. The pictures follow the 24 solar terms of the traditional Japanese calendar, from the first day of spring (Risshun) to the coldest days of winter (Daikan), so you color your way through a full year. Hitomi Kawai, who works mainly in colored pencil, explains coloring techniques, and some of the pictures come with colored examples. Each motif has a short note on its features and history. The book follows Kawai's earlier title on patterns of the world.

Translated from the Japanese original.
