北斎流の絵はこうして描く！

One of the most popular painters of the Edo period, Hokusai was also ateacher who had more than 200 students. Having loved to draw since he
was a child, Hokusai was constantly observing and sketching plants andanimals. Hokusai Manga, the series of copybooks that he produced
beginning in his mid-fifties, include a wide variety of plants and animals. In
addition to familiar flowers and cats and birds, they also cover all sorts ofplants and animals such as the camel, an unfamiliar beast from overseas;
trees from the tropics; great whales and sharks that lived in the sea; andeven creatures of legend and fantasy. These images not only used as areference by Hokusai’s students but also more widely by the people of Edo,many of whom were no doubt inspired to try copying them as a means ofimproving their own ability to draw.
In addition to his own work, Hokusai also produced collections of designs
for craftsmen and instructional guides for painters. Ehon saishikitsū (PictureBook on the Use of Coloring), for example, describes how to draw various
plants and animals, complete with detailed instructions for aspiring painterssuch as how to use the brush and specific colors to use. Many of thevolumes that Hokusai—a prolific painter throughout his life—produced topopularize his signature “Hokusai style” could function perfectly well as
textbooks even today.
