Fandom History
I stumbled into fandom in general via Sailor Moon. I didn't interact with anyone in that fandom, I mostly lurked, read fic and drew fanart that I never posted. HP was the first fandom that I actually got involved in. I had just finished watching the first movie and I needed to find out more, so off to Google I went. Nasubionna's fanart was the first fannish thing I encountered and from there I was hooked. Fast-forward 10 years later and I'm still very much into fandom. I may stray from HP every now and then, but I always come back.
Example Art
Harry Potter
- Couch (image offline) — Harry/Ron/Hermione, G. Created for triofqf (2004). starrysummer recced this piece as crack_broom in 2005, writing:
- "First off, I love __hibiscus's style. Colors, thick outlines, somewhere between realism and just eye-pleasing fun. Despite being only G, there's an intimacy to this picture that I love. The trio in pyjamas, Harry wrapped in his blanket asleep. Ron's hand lightly stroking Harry's hair [and] Hermione holding his glasses. They seem so comfortable with each other and so close. It really captures their relationship in one perfectly-laid out image."[1]
