¤
Harry Frying Bacon - for Dudley's birthday breakfast. I was struck
by how ordinary Harry's world was at the beginning of the first
book ... you kind of forget that as the series goes on.
Budding
Parseltongue - ... but of course we don't know that when he's talking
to the boa at the zoo.
I want my letter! - Harry demands his letter
back from Uncle Vernon – one of my very first Potter drawings
and still one of my favourites.
¤
The
Dursleys - ... faced with an angry, magical giant.

Setting
Off - Hagrid and Harry leave the island, and Harry begins his adventure.
Oh, if he only knew what was in store...
Malfoy Gets Robed - At Madam Malkin's in
Diagon Alley, Malfoy imparts some 'wisdom' to Harry.
Hagrid's Precious - Oh Hagrid, you shouldn't
love that egg so much.
Norbert - A baby dragon, how adorable! What
could possibly go wrong?
Troll in the dungeons! - Quirrell raises
the alarm
The Troll - that was in the dungeons. And then
the bathroom.
Troublesome Turban - Quirrell adjusts his
turban after a certain argument overheard by Harry.
Mirror of Erised - Harry tries to get closer
to his parents (inspired more by the soundtrack to the movie than by
an actual part of the book)
Checkmate - Ron's view of the white chess
queen who knocks him out in the chess test.
Snap - Quirrell spins around from the
mirror and snaps to call up bindings for Harry.
Ow, my hands! - So it turns out Quirrell
can't touch Harry ... hmm, that's useful. (I learned after drawing this
that Harry's supposed to be in his robes, not pyjamas, but it's too
late now. Oh, and this is an earlier version of Quirrell.)
