This was so much fun to draw and color. I really missed Harry!
Done with pencil and photoshop

The scene takes place the day before Harry gets to leave to Hogwarts for the first time. I clearly remember feeling excitement, anxiety and isolation when I read this for the first time and I hope this drawing projects the same feelings.

I've seen this picture several times since it was first uploaded, but every time it's like I'm falling in love with it all over again. I especially love the lamp :heart:
