This handy journal showcases rarely seen concept art from My Neighbor Totoro, Studio Ghibli’s classic fantasy film about a family and their adventures with the strange and delightful creatures who live in the neighboring forest. Complete with full-color artwork on the front and back covers, five interior spreads of concept art, and spot illustrations throughout, this journal is the perfect keepsake for Studio Ghibli fans and animation enthusiasts of all ages.
Pair it with other themed merchandise, including My Neighbor TotoroNotebook, Sketchbook, Pop-UpNotecards, Pencils, and Erasers, or Studio Ghibli 100 Collectible Postcards Volumes 1 and 2, to create an extra-special present.
In addition to stamping and stencilling, various relief methods of
printmaking, including lino, texture plate and collagraph, the
author has included four different types of screen printing and sun
and cyanotype print projects as well as how to use rust and plant
materials for 'eco' type printing. Transfer methods and altered art
prints offer a different take on conventional approaches to this
easily accessible art form. But by far the most exciting, and
largest section of the book is devoted to monotype prints and
monoprinting with the focus on gel printing. Angie Franke uses her
gelatine based printing pads (you'll get the recipe) and the
commercial Gelli Plate - as well as a fascinating venture into clay
bed printing - to explore monoprint methods in many different ways,
drawing on other processes in the book to build fascinating results
of richly combined layers of colour with stamp, stencil, mask and
texture plate tools. Easy to follow instructions with stylish
photographs will inspire anyone to give printmaking a go!
