Me too... I don't know what it is exactly about them that I don't like though... I mean it's good art and everything but it just doesn't depicit it like the movie pic's.

I love her book covers and chapter art - but these are way over the top. Have you seen the one of Sirius in the Shrieking Shack? He looks so freakin' scary! I would have run away, but only after soiling myself if I'd come across a suposed murder who looked like that. lol.
Picture seventeen doesn't make any sense. He's obviously playing against the Slytherins in quiditch, but the slytherin seeker has BLACK hair. Malfoy is a BLOND. I'm really confused right now. I wish she would try to make the drawings more life like, instead of so cartoony.

Well the artists does do the American covers for the HP books which is probably why we're not used to them. I wonder who does the UK ones, I'd never thought on it before...
It states that Jason Cockcroft and William Webb are the Artwork designers at Bloomsbury who do the covers. Shame, they don't ever really get mentioned for their work, because I personally prefer the UK covers to the USA ones. Especially Goblet of Fire, I love that cover!
I love them! I personally think they are better then the film... Sometimes I think the films and the books are based on two totally different aspects. Which they kinda are...
I LOVE HER ART! She is my drawing hero!
