I think she should of had lots and lots and lots of pictures of sirius. but oh well...i guess he isnt her favorite harry potter person and her life doesnt revolve around drawing harry potter charactors.

I like Mary work. I like the style in what she does. Even JK Rowling says that Mary’s work was her favorite. Did you read that Hagird’s dog is her dog Chopper?

Love her artwork, its a really unique style- I believe that she calls it 'soft geometry'. It keeps getting better and better as the books progress- I can't wait to see the next one.

padfoot5312 I think the article said her dog Chopper was the visual inspiration for her drawings of Hagrid. I laughed when I read that!

I think her artwork makes the Harry Potter books look really neat. And I'm going to brag a little here... she lives in St. Paul, Minnesota, which is where I live! A few of my friends have even met her.

Can’t wait to see her book that she’s writing with her husband. Should go to the library to see her other work.

Lovely artist... I just wish the WB would tell us who the artist is behind all the promo-art. Like in the calenders, the bookmarks... the artist that uses all those pastels. That artist rocks!

Yeah. This jsut proves my point. She is an awesome illustrator. And I am probably one of the biggest critics of artwork, cause both my parents are artists.

Her work totally characterizes Harry Potter... I mean, could you imagine the books w/o all of her art between chapters and on the cover?

Mary GrandPré is some artist. I like her colors and design. I wonder what kind of artwork she does for herself? We are all looking forward to the HP book covers for 6 and 7.
