Disneyazaki 1 Progress

Okay, so this week has been MADNESS! For anyone who knows about my work life over the past few years, then you'll know that I used to work a TON in professional theatrical costuming. I've stepped back from that field a bit on account of how demanding it is. However, a very dear friend of mine had two shows opening at the same time, so I hopped back into the world of TECH WEEK. It's fun, but it's a lot of work and left me no time to do a new illustration this week. SO! I'm posting a preview/progress pic from my formerly secret project: Disneyazaki!

This project has been in the works since last November/December. Inspiration came from my childhood of Disney and my boyfriend's childhood of Miyazaki. We both have a love of animation, so I started this project as something of a nostalgic Valentine. After flying through line work for 5 illustrations, I've since been hung up on what to do with backgrounds. Frankly, I really love simple, graphic designs, and I may leave them simple...but feedback is totally welcome! Like I said, this is progress. Toying with going nouveau again...?
