Yasuko Kusakabe from the movie "My Neighbor Totoro" is the mother of two little sisters, Satsuki and Mei Kusakabe. She's a kind and loving mom who takes care of her family with a lot of love.

Yasuko has brown eyes and straight brown hair that she usually ties back in a low ponytail. She's often seen wearing a hospital gown because she's not feeling very well. She's sick with something called tuberculosis, which is why she has to stay in the hospital near their new home.

Even though Yasuko is not in the movie a lot, she's a very important part of the family. She's the reason why the Kusakabe family moves to their new house in the countryside, so they can be closer to the hospital where she's staying.

Even when she's not with them, she cares a lot about her daughters and they love her very much. In today's drawing tutorial, let's learn how to draw the loving mom from “My Neighbor Totoro”!
