Hello all, this week I wanted to share with you some of the background paintings used in my favorite movie, Kiki's Delivery Service. This movie was a Studio Ghibli film made back in 1989, directed by Hayao Miyazaki. I decided to dedicate my blog post to this not only because it has personal meaning to me, but also because the art for it is simply breath taking, just look at it!! Something that I really love about animation is that studios will often merge traditional mediums with the animation. These backgrounds are hand painted, and I think that it really gives the films their own individual atmosphere and tone, especially when mixed with the beautiful soundtracks composed by Joe Hisaishi. 
I'll just drop this song here as a bonus to my ridiculously long post... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJbkkibYA54
If you ever want to relax, I highly recommend listening to some of his music!!

    I love the outlines of shapes, especially when they're done in white, it gives the image an in interesting, almost disconnected feeling.

    I love how these are actually painted with precise detail in every object. It makes it even more interesting and breadth taking!

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Malena Bozzini         Malena Bozzini is a sophomore college student studying psychology. As her passion she is an artist. Her work is so original and abstract in order to dramatize her figures. She creates art out of emotion and uses her feelings to choose color and shape. One of the most interesting facts is that all of her pieces are done with colored pencils. Her art is so expressive that each piece gives out its own vibe. What makes her art unique is that it is inspired by motion and gestures. It is amazing how she developed such a style at such a young age.  Instagram @ malenabozzini
