This original illustration evokes the dollhouse and garden party scenes that appear throughout Kitagishi’s work. The artwork was painted in acrylic gouache and printed on a polyester material that vividly captures the original colors and texture.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe innocent expressions of the wide-eyed animals are of course a delight, but it’s the sheer density of detail packed into every corner that makes Kitagishi’s work so captivating. In a village that stretches beneath a great tree and a hill, colorful houses stand in rows while animals bustle about — some working, some at play — filling the scene with life and energy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOpen the cover and you’ll find yourself in what feels like a cozy room. The inner surface where the book slides in is designed to resemble fresh, pale green wallpaper. The right-side pocket features a white cat playing with a dollhouse. The “butterfly-stopper” pen holders are designed in the style of Tyrolean tape adorned with delicate flowers, and the bookmark is a simple ribbon.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content-text\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tmpl-default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content-detail\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the back of the cover, the village animals have gathered to enjoy an elegant afternoon tea on a grassy hillside.
