Castle in the Sky Illustration Process – Ghibli/Miyazaki Print Collection

It all begins with (in my case) a terrible sketch of my next project.
From that sketch, I take to my tablet and begin to form small ideas, color stories, design elements which eventually coalesce into the final product as you will see in the gallery below.

The inspiration for these pieces were stained glass art (for style), illuminated manuscripts (for layout), and of course the subject matter is inspired by the films of Hayao Miyazaki and the animated film studio; Studio Ghibli.
