It is interesting, but I only like Mary GrandPré's drawings on the book covers. These in the Calendars never fascinate me as much...
But the covers, I really love them. Especially GoF, and the character of Mad-Eye. MAry drawed him exactly the way I imagined him.

I didn't like Grand Pre's drawings at first, but they have definitely grown on me! Maybe I'll get one for Christmas, if it's out then

Mary GrandPre does a good job with paiting HP. But I prefer to buy the calendars that have pictures from the movies.

Cool pics. Not sure I'd really want them in calendar form, but they might make neat ICONS and so forth.

Oooh! I want them both! I love Mary GrandPre's artwork. At one point I thought about getting the UK editions just to research inconsistantsies, but I couldn't stand the artwork so I didn't. I guess I'm just a loyal American.

This calendar looks so cool. I know I will be looking for it in the stores. I love her artwork and would love to decorate a kids room with it someday. I think it would be so neat to have a Harry Potter bedroom with framed Mary Grand Pre prints on the walls.

I love these pictures! I have the 2005 calendar so I'm definately getting the 2006! The pictures are good to cut out, frame, and hang in a nursery. (If I had children, that is)

I'm definitely going to have to take a look at those at some point. I love Mary GrandPre's artwork, and it'll be interesting to see some new HP images from her.

They're nice, but not as capturing as Grandpre's covers on the HP books.

The art work is okay but I enjoy the pictures from the movies better, because they aren't so conceptual. They are more defined and I absolutly love the actors they have chosen so far...the only one I'm not too sure about is Moody.
