Harry Potter’s Birthday
Happy Birthday Harry Potter!
Harry, the character from the novels, was born on July 31, 1980. It might be pure coincidence that author J.K. Rowling was also born on July 31. 😉
I have my daughters to thank for introducing me to the first movie in November of 2001. When we left the theater, I was as happy as they were. It reminded me of the feeling I had when I saw Star Wars for the first time.
The books and the movies have brought me and my daughters many happy memories throughout the years, including a trip last fall to a coffee shop that decorates the entire shop and serves snacks, coffees, and tea all inspired by Harry Potter for the month of October.
I did draw more in my sketchbook this week. Here are the sketchbook drawings for Harry and Hagrid.
I do believe there is magic left in the world, but it is up to us to find it.
Be kind to yourself on your creative journey.
