Content: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers):
Pop Manga Catitude Book is marketed as an adult coloring book, but honestly, the book would appeal to and is appropriate for cat lovers of all ages. The paperback book contains 80 pages of black-and-white feline-themed drawings printed on thick, bright-white matte stock. According to the press release, the paper is non-bleed. While I’m not sure how it would fare with paint, it feels like it would stand up well against markers.
d’Errico draws her cats in a realistic style with a definite bias toward kittens and super fluffy breeds. Although she limits herself to the range of actual feline anatomy, her cats still exude a wide spectrum of emotions and personality, with cute and disgruntled (think grumpy cat memes) dominating her works. Most of the featured felines are housecats, but the collection does include larger cats like lions and tigers.
Drawings can be broadly categorized into five types:
- Cats in costume
- Cats with cute props/backgrounds
- Cats in cute poses
- Cute cats doing cute things
- Feline-themed demi-humans
The demi-humans are basically shojo manga-style children and youths with animal ears and tails. While the majority are feline-people, there is a mouse-girl in the mix. Also, most of the demi-human illustrations show them posing with cats.
Although everything in the collection can be described as adorable, some illustrations have a whimsical feel, others are funny, while still others are charming. For the cats in costume or with props, backgrounds are drawn to match or complement the cats’ outfits and objects. As you might expect, several drawings incorporate cat-associated items, such as mice, fish, fishbones, and pawprints. However, the collection also includes a sailor cat against a background of anchors and a fantastical winged cat against a background of feathers.
Most illustrations take up a single page, but there are a few two-page spreads. The main illustrations are outlined in black ink; for drawings with backgrounds, background images are printed in grey.
In Summary:
Looking for a cute animal-themed coloring book? Catitude is sure to fit the bill, especially if you love fluffy felines. Perfect for all ages, d’Errico’s artwork is wonderfully creative and delightfully fun.
