Description A little something different. I've been watching a lot of Miyazaki lately, and decided to show a couple of characters from my point of view (Chihiro from Spirited Away and Nausicaa from Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind).

Moleskine, ink, watercolor.

I like how you've made Chichiro look Japanese without caricaturing her at all.

Great work drawing both these characters!

Thanks, Kat! Hayao Miyazaki is the director of Spirited Away ( [link] ), and many other amazing films. They're incredibly imaginative and creative. You should totally check them out, I think you'll love them!

thank you maria so much i read some of the story on the link sounds so interesting, i wonder do these movies ever air on tv/cable or are they just dvd based?

Spirited Away might... It won an Oscar several years back, so it got a lot of exposure. Other movies you can get on DVD or through Netflix (you can stream a lot of movies now... so worth it!).
