I always loved animation and studio Ghibli is one of my biggest influences, so here’s some Mononoke fanart I did over the years. You can read more about my influences in my book, which is on Kickstarter for 13 more days!

“Animation stopped being evocative of life, & instead transmitted packaged, easily consumed constructs that had to keep changing in appearance, so viewers wouldn’t realize the lack of creativity.”
Nausicaa is a princess who is brave and kind. She is a leader as well as a team player. She is intelligent and charismatic. Some of our other animated princesses could learn a lot from her.

“Many of my movies have strong female leads - brave, self-sufficient girls that don’t think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They’ll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a saviour. Any woman is just as capable of being a hero as any man.” -Hayao Miyazaki
Happy International Women’s Day!

As a former student of biology and an eternal fan of Ghibli, and this hits really deeply. 😁
biologists will be like this is a very simplified diagram of a mammalian cell
chemists will be like this is a molecule
