ORIGINAL DRAWING LESSON
Albus Dumbledore
In this lesson, we learn to draw a portrait of a popular professor from the school of witchcraft and wizardry. Albus Dumbledore is a wise and powerful wizard, the headmaster of Hogwarts, whose kindness and belief in the good in people inspire many. He has a deep understanding of dark magic and is willing to sacrifice everything to protect the wizarding world. Despite his power and authority, Dumbledore often shows eccentricity and a love for sweets, which makes his character even more human and memorable.
