It has been two amazing weeks in Japan.  To finish off my journey before leaving for home, I had the absolute pleasure to meet the legendary director from Studio Ghibli

The Breadwinner

I am currently working on layout and backgrounds for the upcoming animation feature movie 'The Breadwinner' which is an adaptation of Deborah Ellis's international best selling noval.   Directed by Nora Twomey, it tells the story of Parvana, a young girl living under the Taliban regime in Afghanistan, who must disguise herself as a boy and become the breadwinner of the family when her father is unfairly imprisoned.
