LEVI PINFOLD – THE NEW HARRY POTTER ILLUSTRATOR

Magical News! We are absolutely thrilled to announce that our incredibly talented artist, Levi Pinfold, will be illustrating the final two books in the Harry Potter Illustrated Editions series for Bloomsbury! 

Levi Pinfold, a multi-award-winning illustrator known for his atmospheric and intricate storytelling, will continue the breathtaking visual legacy established by Jim Kay. Fans of the Wizarding World may already be familiar with his stunning work on the Harry Potter Hogwarts House Editions and The Harry Potter Wizarding Almanac.

The magic begins with Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, set to publish in October 2026. As an exciting first glimpse, we’re delighted to share a sneak peek of Levi’s spellbinding interpretation of Harry gazing into Dumbledore’s Pensieve, capturing the depth and mystery of the story to come.

We couldn’t be prouder of Levi and can’t wait for fans to experience his extraordinary vision of Hogwarts and beyond! Stay tuned for more magical updates! ✨
