GrandPre on the New Sorcerer's Stone Cover and More
|
We recently told you about the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone anniversary issue that Scholastic is planning to publish in September of this year. Now Time Magazine has had the chance to speak with the US book cover artist Mary GrandPre about the cover.
What was it like to go back and draw Harry as an 11-year-old [for the upcoming anniversary edition] now that his story has finished unfolding?
It was really a nice opportunity. As Harry grew, I always wished I could go back and make a new piece for each book. So when the anniversary cover idea came up, I was really excited to do that. It's like getting to do a new portrait of this old soul you really know.
What did you try to do differently, given what you've learned about him as he traveled through the saga?
The first cover was a designed cover, with a certain trendy feel to it. As you got to know him, it was more about depicting Harry as a real person. By the fifth cover, I was more interested in Harry on an emotional, personal level rather than creating a graphically designed, compositionally correct cover. I tried to bring that emotional and personal feeling to this anniversary cover.
You can see the cover in our gallery here: Front; Back
You can also pre-order the book in our Harry Potter's Page Amazon store here!

| I really like it. But that means I'm going to have to spend more money on a book I really don't need. lol |
