Harry Potter: 10 Fan Art Pieces For Any Fan Of The Chosen One

Harry Potter. The Chosen One. The main character of the Harry Potter series, leading a life that would be experienced by hundreds of millions of people all around the globe. It was through Harry’s journey that the Wizarding World came to light, and his story made readers and viewers fall in love with magic and understand all the lessons hidden skillfully through metaphors.

So, what did the fans do to show their appreciation? They created art. Art is no less than another form of magic, taking people places and weaving all sorts of possibilities. These 10 pieces of fan art are worthy of The Chosen One, and are made with heart and soul.

10 The Boy Who Lived

Famous for something so arbitrary, Harry Potter survived Voldemort’s attempt to murder him when it very easily could have been Neville Longbottom. His life continued to plague him with the reminder that he is merely surviving, not living. The boy who lived must fight the battle against the dark arts if he is to truly live. And that’s what he did. He fought.

9 Harry

Harry Potter is older, wiser, and maybe still as daft as he used to be as a boy. This artist’s vision of Harry as his older self gives Harry a rough, scruffy, weary, yet bold look. This is a man who lived through The Battle Of Hogwarts and looked death in the face, died, and came back to life. The artist has even included the emblem of the Deathly Hallows, a symbol of his journey.

8 Light In The Dark

This artist copied a reference of themselves, using a phone and timer, to gain this delightful perspective. How must it feel to wield such power? To use it for good instead of evil, light instead of darkness, to experience it but not be consumed by it? This graphic illustration was created in celebration of Harry Potter’s 20th Anniversary.

7 Extreme Patronus

A precious and powerful moment in time captured as a feast for the eyes. The threatening forest darkened further by the swirl of Dementors coming from all sides, suffocating Harry and Sirius’s souls. All is helpless, lonely, desperate. Mercy isn’t in a Dementor’s nature.

But, among the feeble attempts to cast the Patronus Charm, a bright, powerful light emerges across the lake. A light holding a stag and blazing with happiness. A light Harry would later come to realize was not his father, but himself.

6 Harry J. Potter

This artist has a series of pieces developing from the concept of Harry as an Auror. But, this isn’t simply Harry as an Auror, it’s Harry influenced by the presence of Sirius Black—in particular, his hairstyle. His facial hair has grown out and become gruff, drawn in a style that is both smooth yet defined.

The execution of this concept is heightened by the artist’s interpretation of Harry’s lightning bolt scar.

5 Frail

This striking and dramatic contrast piece puts the climax secret of Harry’s survival into simplistic terms. Harry is the last piece of the puzzle. “And either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives.” Harry is the final Horcrux. He must die to vanquish Voldemort. This has been magnificently portrayed with the spooky leeching ghoul by Harry’s side, a representation of the segment of Voldemort’s soul.

4 Order Of The Phoenix

Every Harry Potter novel led to more revelations for the readers about the world, plot, and characters. But, Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix showed a different side to Harry. This is the Harry who knows for certain that Voldemort has returned, and what he chooses to do next is weighed heavily by the lives that are in the balance.

Harry is in darkness, but there is hope growing, a fight inside him making itself more known than ever before. There is no invisible enemy. Voldemort is back in a form that can know death, and Dumbledore’s Army is training to meet him in battle.

3 Light

This piece is truly magical. Through the artist’s use of soft and peaceful colors, it’s easy to transfer the viewer into the world of wizardry. To feel how Harry felt when he was told he was a wizard and no longer held back by his loosely termed “family.” To enter a world where he has friends, adventures, a loyal owl, an education beyond his wildest dreams, and the ability to wield a wand.

2 Harry In Pencil

Pencil defies expectations in this extraordinary fan art. This scratchy, unique art form has apparated viewers into the mind of haggard, fighting, war carved Harry. Perhaps this is just before he defeats Voldemort, or maybe during the time he is hunting Horcruxes with Ron and Hermione, or maybe witnessing The Battle Of Hogwarts. How long has he been suffering? This raw piece brings depth with its use of color and texture.

1 One Of The Trio

Who is Harry without Ron and Hermione? These realistic and artful depictions of the Golden Trio have been created using the novel descriptions and artist’s imagination. Hermione with her uncontrollable, frizzy hair. Ron with his lanky, tall build, Weasley features, and freckled face. Harry with his mother’s green eyes and unruly black hair sticking up at all angles.
