Gabriel Picolo-Creative Lives Series

Self-Portrait?

As most of my friends know, I have been immersed in the magical world of Harry Potter as I prepare for the upcoming Harry Potter Camp at Bishop's Ridge Camp and Conference Center on June 12 (or Camp Stoney).  In getting ready for all the classes at Hogwarts, I came across images of the artwork of Gabriel Picolo.  Gabriel is a full time free lance illustrator from Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Gabriel has done a series of images based on the Harry Potter books which make me wish he had been the illustrator chosen by Scholastic.  Take a look...





And in memory of Alan Rickman, the late actor who played the part of Snape...
 These works are created as journal pages and make me think of the daydreaming and doodling I did in boring classes...not that the classes at Hogwarts are EVER boring.
