Celebrating Hayao Miyazaki’s ‘My Neighbour Totoro’, this tortoise shows the lovable forest troll surrounded by foliage. The film is a beautiful message of nature connection and becoming one with your environment, an important reminder to slow down and take in your surroundings with a child-like sense of wonder. Artist Will Bertram’s work is based around drawing, often combining detailed linework with colourful texture, as demonstrated in this indulgent design.
