resin particles (A);
a crosslinking agent (B);
a pigment (C); and
a nanocellulose (D),
wherein
a content of the nanocellulose (D) is 0.5 to 2.0 parts by mass in terms of solid content with respect to 100 parts by mass of a resin solid content in the coating composition,
a solid content concentration of the coating composition is in a range from 45 to 65 mass %, and
a viscosity of the coating composition measured by a Brookfield-type viscometer under measurement conditions of a temperature of 20° C. and a rotor rotation speed of 60 rpm is in a range from 350 to 1200 mPa·s.
