Fans of Japanese anime movies will instantly recognize the inspiration found in these beautiful paintings by Louise Terrier.

The French artist, painter, and sculptor takes well-known anime characters from Studio Ghibli (the animation house behind such famous anime films as My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki’s Bakery) and adds her own creative flair to some of the most beloved heroes. The Annecy-based Miyazaki fan says she’s scribbled since the day her parents put a pencil in her hands, and as she writes on her Facebook page, “When people ask me: where do those creative ideas come from? I would say I don’t know! But it’s just a part of me, like my nose in the middle of my face! Even though my studies take the most part of my time, the pleasure of watercolor paintings never leaves me.” We’re very glad to hear that!

Now scroll down below and check the beautiful fan art dedicated to the most popular anime movies from Studio Ghibli!

    I love it. The one with the dubbing. Not the atrocity with Elle and Dakota fanning doing the voices of Mei and Satsuki. Not funny at all. Just dumb. Thank God I have the DVD

    Some of Studio Ghibli's most famous films include "My Neighbor Totoro," "Spirited Away," "Princess Mononoke," "Howl's Moving Castle," and "Ponyo”, most of which Louise has recreated in her paintings.

    I realize this is supposed to be fan art, but canon Princess Mononoke and Ashitaka don't end up together romantically in the movie. To quote the TV Tropes page for the movie (under the category Characters; Ashitaka, Unresolved Sexual Tension: "While Mononoke Hime (also known as San) does come to reciprocate his feelings, at the end, they realize that neither of them could give up their present lifestyles for each other, and the two part, promising to still meet each other every so often."

    So maybe this is them saying a final farewell to each other. Things are back in harmony (somewhat), and they are parting in order to take care of their respective tribes.

    These movies often explore themes of nature, environmentalism, coming of age, and the importance of human connections. One of the unique features of their animation is the attention to detail in the background art, which often features stunning landscapes and intricate details that bring the world to life.

    This is definitely "The Wind Rises", not "Howl's Moving Castle".

    Don't mind me for mistaking a drawing. Said Howl's moving castle but the good people of the internet gladly corrected me to The wind rises. Thank you.

    Sophie does wear a yellow dress at the end of Howl's Moving Castle though. Where she and Howl are standing on that little balcony and they kiss. It's right near the end of the movie.
