Naohisa Inoue (井上 直久, Inoue Naohisa, born in 1948 in Osaka, Japan) is a fantasy artist influenced by both the Surrealism and Impressionism movements.[1][2][3] Most of his paintings are set in the fantastical land of Iblard (イバラード, Ibarādo). He created reference and background art for the Studio Ghibli film Whisper of the Heart and also provided a cameo appearance as the voice of Minami. More recently, his works were given a more direct adaptation in the short film The Day I Harvested a Star (星をかった日, Hoshi o Katta Hi) which will be shown exclusively at the Ghibli Museum.
He attended the Kanazawa College of Art from 1971 to 1973.
