Hayao Miyazaki

I researched one of my favorite artists of all time, Hayao Miyazaki. He is mostly known for his animated feature films such as Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle, and quite a few more. Miyazaki was born on January 5th, 1941 in Tokyo, Japan and is a cofounder of Studio Ghibli.

Drawings of his that I studied-
