My Neighbor Totoro! for Joe Bowen

Grace and I were delighted to receive the incredible drawing of Totoro from Hayao Miyazaki’s film “My Neighbod Totoro.” It’s a film we’ve never seen, but after drawing Totoro, Grace wants to. And, I’m thrilled.

The art came from a very talented artist, Joe Bowen. Joe’s rendition of Gizmoduck from Disney’s Ducktales was recently featured on “Best Art Ever.” This led us to Joe’s blog, which offers an incredibly diverse collection of art and … drum roll … his “Scott Bakula vs. The World” riff on Scot Pilgrim. Awesome. Check out his site: http://joebowenart.blogspot.com/

And, Joe gave us great advice for artists of all ages and skills: “Don’t be afraid to try new things! If you’ve gotten pretty good at drawing with a pencil and pen, try painting! Try digital art! There are sooo many great mediums, that sometimes it’s creatively refreshing to try something completely foreign.” Thanks, Joe! And, for you …
