Totoro in Pastels with watercolor background

I just had to draw this out <;0) I just love Hayao Miyazaki's work. His illustrations and movie "My Neighbor Totoro" となりのトトロ is just too cute. So the background is actually an experiment using watercolors with water and ozone safe paint thinner. I'm trying to combine several elements that I like, plant botanical illustrations with morphing and merging of colors. I think with Totoro and his friends this subject matter would be a perfect fit <;0). I'm actually happy how this came out.
