Description Aaah... yet another illustration from the prolific years. This is a mock-up cover for 'The Chamber of Secrets', the second book in the Harry Potter series. Done sometime in 2000 as a project for uni. Watercolors, ecolines and a little help from the actual UK cover's layout and fonts.

Harry Potter is copyright © J. K. Rowling and Bloomsbury

I was attracted to this because of the wonderful watercolor-and-line effects, and the brilliant colors. If it looks this good on a computer monitor, I can't begin to imagine just how vibrant it must be in real life! It is so gem-like an illustration. Love it!

I don't know about the inventive, but there is blood and a sword on the cover so there must be some action around
