Okay, so I know that this isn't the best art ever, but I haven't used paintbrush in a really long time, and I've never tried to use it to draw people. I got the idea for this from the chapter in HBP where Myrtle and Draco are in one of the bathrooms, and Draco's crying. I've always loved Draco, and at that moment in time I felt my heart really go out to him. *to Draco* I was tempted to replace Myrtle with Draconia, but decided that I should probably wait to do that until I have it drawn with paper and a pencil.
Not bad...better than I would do using a mouse! Nice work ^^

I really love the Sectumsempra chapter. It has multifaceted symbolism about innocence lost, war, choice, the cost of ignorance, the cost of judgmentalism, kindness, etc etc.
Looks good! Drawing from a mousepad is something I'd hate to do, so kudos for your bravery with it. The geometric feel of the people and surroundings is kinda catchy! One tip--when drawing, it's sometimes good to look at real models and then, when you actually execute the drawing, to think of parts as just shapes and colors, and then register "hand" "nose" etc as what they are later. It just makes it easier for me.
