Mary GrandPre has done a new interview where she talks about the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows cover.

“The art grew up as Harry did, too,” she says. “I’ve grown a lot as an artist, and I feel like the last cover is my best. If I could, I’d redo the first three or four – get a little more realism, get closer up on Harry, more drama – but you have to live with what you’ve done.”

“There are just a few of us who have read book seven,” GrandPre says. “The manuscript is flown down to me. I keep it in a safe once it gets here. I don’t talk to anybody about when I get it or where I keep it. I sign a paper promising that I won’t. It’s all very legal and protected, and I have to sign confidentiality agreements. It’s very serious stuff. Because if it gets out, if there’s any kind of theft or leak, that’s huge.
