| | |  Enquirer interviews Mary GrandPre
The Cincinnati Enquirer has published a new interview with US Potter illustrator, Mary GrandPre, regarding her newest piece of artwork for the cover of the ' Half Blood Prince'. Quote:
I love Harry because: When JK invented Harry, she found parts of every kid and put them in him. He is vulnerable and alone, at times he doesn't feel like the most popular kid.
Quote:
Time allocated for Harry books is: Not much! Maybe a month and that includes reading it, doing cover and chapter sketches, and creating the final art.

I dont think he's that vunerable, he is quite capable of taking hold of the situation, he's not like a little child, yes he might have been when he was younger, but in OOTP i think he was not vunerable at all.

About Harry's vulnerability, didn't jkr mention something about that? I think I remember reading that there was a time when Harry Potter was depicted in a cartoon or something (really really just vaguely remember) without his glasses, and she reacted with something like, why would they take away his glasses? That shows his vulnerable side, where the supposed all powerful wizard can't even see without his glasses (or something like that....)

Harry's definitely vunerable. Just because he's a hero, doesn't mean he isn't. In fact, all good heros are vunerable.
I loved that she mentioned that JKR took elements from every kid and put them into Harry. Mainly because of the Lie Detector show thing because that's nothing short of hilarious.
