Fawkes

Fawkes (2012). Pen, red ink, watercolour and bleach.
Based on an old drawing I did. I love Fawkes. :) To my mind, he's always sort of been a symbol of hope.

What I presented in the group crit today




It was generally decided that the medication bottles were too literal, which I sort of expected to be honest. I just really like little glass bottles. Anyway, I think I'm going to put together another box and probably add to the existing one, to create two 'books' that are each filled with things pertaining to a character and their part of the story.

MyHogwarts textbook illustrations

Holly Wand - for 1000 Magical Herbs and Fungi

Billywig, dormant and in flight - for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Fenrir Greyback as a Snatcher - for History of Magic

Morning Creeper - for 1000 Magical Herbs and Fungi
These are the illustrations I've done so far for a new Harry Potter fan site, MyHogwarts. They're making pdf textbooks based on the ones we hear about in the Harry Potter series. This is the first time I've really done illustration, which I think shows in the somewhat varied style haha. The Greyback one was the hardest for me, as I generally find people (or werewolves) most difficult to draw. I still think he looks a bit more static than I would like. But yeah. This has been really fun so far, I'm always up for drawing things from the Potterverse. I'm looking forward to seeing how the finished textbooks will look when the site opens fully in June. It's in Beta at the moment, but if you want to find out more, click this portkey!
