I don’t know how to describe Leela’s marvelous work except to say that she is unparalleled in her ability to create an atmosphere that just feels completely magical. I love just about everything she’s done, and her work is a backbone of any great Potter art collection.

I love them all… this page needs a “Like” button that doesn’t keep track of how many times you push it! :)
But my favorite is the last, “Deathly Hallows Trio.”
(P.S. Does anyone else find themselves reminded of Brooke Shields when they look at the portrait of Rowena Ravenclaw?)

These are all wonderful. My favorite is probably ‘Bill’ or Ravenclaw though.
Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You’re freaking brilliant!! I gotta say my favorite ones are:
1. “Ginny Tom” Which absolutely scares the shiz out of me (that makes it more awesome IMO. You drew that perfectly.
2. Your awesome pictures of Sirius. (HOT!!)
3. The pic of Bill
4. The last picture of the Golden Trio. I love it. <3
