Some Excerpts

[Inspiration:] Enayla for is awsome [sic] realistic Illustrations! But I fell inspired by so much artist, from hp fandom and not, comics (I read so much of it, I love the french comics!) cartoon and etc... [...] I find inspiration in everything, in comics, magazines, or movies too, because I use to make always a detailed search for my cartoonist work.

I don’t think I’ll make hentai or nc17 scenes and I don’t like drawing situations about H/Hr. Like characters...err no one in particular [that I wouldn't draw].

Oh, for me [all the characters] are all difficult ones [to illustrate], every time that I draw a character for me is a challenge, because J.K. Rowling has characterized so well that I always believe not to be able of to represent them!

[For a commissioned piece based on a specific story:] My english isn’t perfect... so I have to read the story twice, if something that I need isn’t write I ask to the author, but I usually received from them all informations cause they are so careful.
