so i thought id make a harry potter blog, only becuase i was given an assignment to find a subject that i know about to oil paint. so i was thinking, and the things that came to mind were animals, music, and harry potter.. well originally i wanted to do a victorianesque piece with a girl holding a bird in her hand. but i thought about it and realised that i dont really know about that. and then i thought about rabbits, becuae they are my favorite animals. this took me back to the picture of mia wasikowska (sp) who plays alice in the upcoming alice and wonderland movie where she is holding a rabbit, and then i though well maybe she could hold a bird too, and it could be sorta snow white-ish, because when i pictured it in my head, thats what i thought of. and then i set that idea aside and began thinking of harry potter and if i could paint that. but i have no idea what i would paint. i dont have a favorite scene in the series, i mean im partial to the mirror scene in philosophers stone, but thats only cuz i know that is jo's favorite scene. i mean, i guess i would have to pick a scene in the 5-7th books, cuz luna is my favorite character, but the number of scenes she is in is limited, and there arent very many places she goes.. but now that i think about it, a scene of the da would be cool, in the room of requirement! or in the woods before the ministry or in the ministry, with all the orbs, or in battle. but i wouldnt want to do anything to difficult and non realistic, cuz i know fredrickson would want me to stick to realism. i could have the trio in the common room. but that doesnt excite me. i guess im gonna have to go back and do a lot more reading to find a scene that fits. i wouldnt want to do any in the seventh book, cuz... i just would want to do it at hogwarts for some reason. actually i dont know.. all the scenes i remember luna being in would be fun, but challenging, like the weding, with all the people, and DOBBY i want to do a picture with dobby in it!!!!!! arent dobby, luna and harry in the malfoy dungeon all at the same time? but its dark, so that could be hard.. but that could make it REALLY cool. i dont want to do a lot of characters, so doing a hogs head visit is kinda out of the question. man, i wish i was doing more than one. i dont want to draw luna with the lion hat, because explaining that to fred would be ... wierd. i would like it to resemble mary grand pre's style without being a subject she has done. maybe a maybe i wont even do a harry potter painting. or maybe ill do like a victorianesque family portrait of the da..? i dont knowwww..
