HP book illustrator Mary GrandPré
donated a pencil sketch of Harry from
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire to a cancer fundraiser for
The Wellness Community.
GrandPré noted that the sketch is one of over 100 that she has created for the HP book series over the years.
Quote:
Let's see, there were six books, so far, and there's going to be a seventh.
There were special-edition covers, maybe eight of those, and all the interior work. Add up all the chapters ... I'd say, easily past 100 illustrations.
The sketch is worth $7,000. You can view it
here in our gallery.
