Sometimes it's the worst day of the year.
(I ain't really use watercolor often, I've only used it three times including this sketch or something.)
(Larva, as in the TV animated show.)
I got bored and saw that the Calico Critters website also has coloring pages.
Lazily done House Calico Critter.
Decently done Jackson Healy and Holland March from the Nice Guys as Calico Critters.
I told Miyazaki I love the “gratuitous motion” in his films; instead of every movement being dictated by the story, sometimes people will just sit for a moment, or they will sigh, or look in a running stream, or do something extra, not to advance the story but only to give the sense of time and place and who they are.
“We have a word for that in Japanese,” he said. “It’s called ma. Emptiness. It’s there intentionally.”
Is that like the “pillow words” that separate phrases in Japanese poetry?
“I don’t think it’s like the pillow word.” He clapped his hands three or four times. “The time in between my clapping is ma. If you just have non-stop action with no breathing space at all, it’s just busyness, But if you take a moment, then the tension building in the film can grow into a wider dimension. If you just have constant tension at 80 degrees all the time you just get numb.”
Which helps explain why Miyazaki’s films are more absorbing and involving than the frantic cheerful action in a lot of American animation. I asked him to explain that a little more.
“The people who make the movies are scared of silence, so they want to paper and plaster it over,” he said. “They’re worried that the audience will get bored. They might go up and get some popcorn.
But just because it’s 80 percent intense all the time doesn’t mean the kids are going to bless you with their concentration. What really matters is the underlying emotions–that you never let go of those.

“Like a child plucking petals off a flower—she loves me, she loves me not, I’m going to kill her, I’m going to let her live. I’m going to carve her eyes out. I’m going to make love to her on satin sheets.”

Different scans on a different device. I like the airy and ghostly feel of these.
