aunt beast is a Harry Potter fan artist who was primarily active around 2002. She is best known for illustrating scenes from fanfiction, including several of Ivy Blossom's stories.

aunt beast takes her name from the A Wrinkle in Time character, an illustration of whom featured on the homepage of her website, fera ex silva clausa.

She stated on her website in 2002:

I confess I am an incorrigible doodler. I have always loved children's illustrated literature, but "professional illustrator" was not, alas, my career path. Then came Harry Potter and my discovery of "fan fiction." Thanks to innumerable creative writers seeking (or not!) pictures to accompany their stories, I have found an outlet for my restless fingers (and tentacles).[1]

digikym wrote of collaborating with aunt beast:

There are so many artists out there that I love working with. One of those is the fantastically talented aunt beast. She has such a unique style... her sketchy drawings are so beautiful and unique. I'm very honoured to work with her. ^_^[2]
