Ever wondered how the wizard cards, creatures and characters were designed and crafted for the Philosopher's / Sorcerer's Stone & Chamber of Secrets PC games? I had the pleasure of chatting with the amazing Jeff Willis, artist and illustrator behind some of my favourite wizard cards! He talked not only about designing artwork for the games but also working for KnowWonder, his relationship with the Harry Potter franchise and answers some of YOUR questions!
