Just Through the Brick Wall Posts: 16 Joined: 7:25pm July 25, 2007	The other day while browsing the net, I came across an article about a JKR interview- and there was a black-and-white picture shown that she had drawn, of baby Harry about to be left on Privet Drive by Dumbledore, Hagrid, and McGonagall. I have heard of more of her illustrations floating around, but Google hasn't proven to be too terribly helpful. I found one site with descriptions of the pictures, but they don't seem to be loading. http://www.angelfire.com/mi3/cookarama/rowldrawings.html Does anyone happen to know where I can see these pictures? I had no idea JKR had any sort of drawing talent and I'm really interested in seeing more of her pictures. That site mentioned FictionAlley but I can't really find anything there.

None of those though, I'd like to see them too. -------------------- ♫ = ♥ Pirates by theonlysong, Tonks by lizetm Donna/'The Doctor' by me

The interview's in several parts. -------------------- The signature pic is credit to theonlysong and given to me by Ioli.

The galleries are linked from the main Leaky Cauldron news page. The gallery staffers are super cool. You can try asking one of them directly as well. Here on the Lounge there is a whole sub-forum dedicated to the Leaky Galleries. From the Lounge's main page you can find it via the little drop-down menu under "Leaky Sites: Cauldron's Corner" This post has been edited by Poet: Aug 29 2007, 04:06 PM

Hogsmeade's Butcher Posts: 5,232 Joined: 1:25pm July 10, 2005 Location: Sharpening my cleaver for photo-chopping	We now have some of JK Rowling's original artwork, featured in the 60 Minutes 2002 interview in the TLC Image Galleries. Included are these amazing images -- Harry and Hagrid in the bowels of Gringotts Bank Professor Snape And Jo's (and my) favourite, the Mirror of Erised -- She really is an incredibly good artist, and, as Peace46 mentioned, you can find some different drawings by solving puzzles on her website.
