First, I just want to thank you for all the lovely comments on my (very old!) HP artwork!    After nearly 20 years, I'm amazed that they still get noticed! This portrait of Arthur is one of my favorites as well. I loved Arthur! After Lupin he was probably my favorite adult HP character. Most of my portraiture was based on real people although Arthur was not based on anyone I knew. 😊

This is an excellent Mr. Weasley! As it's been 13 years since I read the 2nd book for the first time, I don't really remember how I pictured him, other than that he had receding hair and glasses and was tall and thin, but this would definitely fill the bill. Great!

This version looks eerily similar to the one i first imagined before seeing the movie, even now, his facial expression also looks much more like his character as written down in the books as well. Fits his description, and looks like my natural image of him. This is the real Mr.Weasley.

I really like your art. This is an excellent picture, but for some reason, I always pictured Arthur with a mustache. :/

I really don't like the way Arthur is in the movie. The thing that annoyed me most is in CoS, when he just stood there and took it when Lucius insulted his family. I mean, hello? They're supposed to get into a fistfight!

I'm not overly fond of the movie Arthur either. Some of the actors and actresses definitely fall short of how I envisioned them. That would be all right if they stayed true to the story and the actions of book characters. But, alas, the movies are what they are and will never be as wonderful as the books.

I like this, I think Arthur was tougher than the movie portrays him, he actually stands up in the books, in the movies he looks like a babysitter or chaperone at times. Good likeness.

Thank You! I agree. I think he much more personable in the books. He's such a kind, funny, sweet man-that's why he's one of my favorite characters.

You gallery is so amazing it makes me want to go comment on them all!! Anyway, I swear you got into my head with this one. lol This exactly as I pictured him in every way. I love your drawing style, so realistic. *sighs in frustration* Ah...I want to say something so badly about this but I can't find the words to do it! Don't you hate that? Well, I'm just going to have to stick with this is absolutely superb and I envy your talent so very much. This is the kind of art I want to be able to do someday. A simply wonderful piece!
