The Boy Who Lived

Two of my very best friends had beautiful baby boys this week. I, on the other hand, painted a picture of baby Harry while listening to HP audiobooks. So. Not the same thing at all.

But welcome to the world, new babies. It's a magical place.

Pottermore

If I were a first year at Hogwarts...



I'd be in Ravenclaw, have a cat for a pet, and my favorite classes would be charms, transfiguration, and astronomy.

I'm a nerd.

Harry Potter vs. The World

Can you guess which graphic novels I've been reading this week? In combination with which audiobooks?

The inevitable result:



I owe a lot to Harry Potter. He's one of the reasons I wanted to draw... And most particularly illustrate. Because when I finished reading I didn't want that world to end.

So I drew.

I drew a lot of Harry Potter.

However, I find that when I draw any HP these days, I fall back into old habits. So I decided to shamelessly steal from do an emulation of Bryan Lee O'Malley's work, which I really love. So there you go.

Happy Fanart Friday.
