If you are a Harry Potter fan, then you need to check out the beautiful artwork of artist Gabriel Picolo. On his Facebook page, he shares a personal project that he created just for fun: books from our favorite Wizarding World. “These books are inspired by spells, curses, potions and other stuff from the Harry Potter world,” he shares. He also shares that he will keep updating it.
Here are some of our favorite pieces from what he has uploaded so far:
Werewolves
“You have only ever seen me amongst the Order, or under Dumbledore’s protection at Hogwarts! You don’t know how most of the wizarding world sees creatures like me! When they know of my affliction, they can barely talk to me!”—Werewolf Remus Lupin
Dementors
“Dementors are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infest the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, they drain peace, hope, and happiness out of the air around them… Get too near a Dementor and every good feeling, every happy memory will be sucked out of you. If it can, the Dementor will feed on you long enough to reduce you to something like itself… soulless and evil. You will be left with nothing but the worst experiences of your life.”
Polyjuice Potion
“The Polyjuice Potion, which is a complex and time-consuming concoction, is best left to highly skilled witches and wizards. It enables the consumer to assume the physical appearance of another person, as long as they have first procured part of that individual’s body to add to the brew (this may be anything – toenail clippings, dandruff or worse – but it is most usual to use hair). The idea that a witch or wizard might make evil use of parts of the body is an ancient one, and exists in the folklore and superstitions of many cultures.
The fact that Hermione is able to make a competent Polyjuice Potion at the age of twelve is testimony to her outstanding magical ability, because it is a potion that many adult witches and wizards fear to attempt.”
Gabriel also shares that he recently watched ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ and that it absolutely blew him away! On that note, he promises that he will draw other magical creatures to fill this album.
