How do imagine Ariana to look.

I was going to request a new signature of how I imagine Ariana Dumbledore to look.

But I oticed that the book doesnt describe her very well.

I imagine her with long white/blond hair with piercing blue eyes.

How does anybody else imagine Ariana to look?

I think she's a little bit like a girl version of Harry's description in the first book, small and scrawny, with pointy elbows and she would be very delicate.

I think there was a breif description of the portrait in the hogshead which was her and she had long blond hair and peircing blue eyes. I think her hair would be curly.

I don't know why I think this but I do.

There's a chapter image of her in the US edition - of her portrait that the students use to go into Hogwarts from the Hog's Head - I just don't remember what chapter number that is.

chapter twenty-eight
here, I scanned it for you =)

The U.S version has illustrations? Oh dear.

I really dislike the illustrations of the U.S. editions....

I actually disagree
they've always helped me alotttt
and you can always be sure they're accurate because JK given the discriptions to the artist of how she pictures it

I don't know....they're done by Mary Grand-Pré, right?
They just look a bit too....I don't know, cartoony for me.

EDIT: That illustration doesn't seem to match the description from the book. Perhaps it was just me, but I imagined the painted-Ariana standing in a room with a large tunnel painted behind her. In that illustration, there are stairs.

like I wouldn't have understood Xenophilius's drawing of the dathly hallows of I hadn't seen the drawing

Pictures in Harry Potter... nooooooooo! It's all about imagining for yourself that's why I don't go see the movies! I agree with the person that said the thing about a blond girl version of Harry, I drew a picture which I can't show you because I don't have a scanner, but I can post it on the 31st of August.

I don't mean to say that they aren't helpful; what I should say is that its a matter of taste.

EDIT: The chapter only describes Ariana as being blond. Is she not described or seen in the pictures of Rita Skeeter's book, though, or during their trip to Godric's Hollow?

Whoever needs help in using their imagination, shouldn't be allowed to have one.

its ok, I understand. but for me, for example, since English is not my first language, I like to have the drawings, they speak all languages! lol
The least of my problems is my emagination, believe me!

Of course if English is not your first language, it's a different story all together.

wow
we got waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of subject
lol

How do you spel Ariana/Arianna? Someone on here has their name with two n's but I thought it was one?

Well, "Ariana" (with one "n"😉 is the historically justified form and which is used in the book.

It's always me! I can't spell anything!

But a girl in my school (a year below, I think) has two n's. The way I wrote for my name.

They're just chapter illustration. Little pictures underneath the chapter titles. Not actual full pictures or anything 🙄 They're pretty cool, actually.

Those are the chapter arts for Deathly Hallows.

Anyway, I don't think Ariana's really described much other than having long blond hair. It's reasonable to assume that she has blue eyes as both her brothers do.

I think those pictures suck! If I ever see the movies that's how disappointing I imagine them to be.
