Description
...well this is late.
I was at least going to upload ONE picture for zutara week but it didn't exactly happen on time. x_x Sorry!
The prompt was "mythology" so I did a little number with the Painted Lady and a rather disturbing looking Blue Spirit. I always did love their designs.
Although I like to imitate, Stephen Gammel I am not. Am I off the hook now, Trish? Haha.
Pencil on bristol.
EDIT: FYI this isn't Zuko and Katara, folks. As the prompt was "mythology" I thought it suitable to portray the legends they impersonate - the actual Blue Spirit and Painted Lady, whoever they were.

This piece is positively stunning! I really like the concept of it, and I think you've interpreted the mythology of it very nicely! The shading here is gorgeous, as it the linework that it augments! I simply cannot say enough good things about this incredible artwork! Marvelously drawn!

You're most welcome, though I could have said even more...but I thought that I got my point across with what I said. By the way, I like your avatar icon!

That was a gift from a friend. I have a nasty habit of jumping on people when they barge in and interrupt me drawing. It isn't pretty. O.o

Oh I hadn't stopped drawing at all - far from it! I just took a break from DA because I felt like it was distracting me from drawing what I wanted to draw. No pressure and what not. It gave me more courage to take my first baby steps into brand new stuff that was bound to fail but necessary to learn. So...yeah.

This is so beautiful! The Painted Lady looks so sad and lonely, and the background is so foreboding, especially considering the Blue Spirit!

Amazing, amazing job! *__*
They really have a chilling, supernatural feel to them, both in their own way. And the fact that it's all pencil makes it even more sinister and otherworldly.

Pencils are rather sinister, aren't they. >_>
Many thanks for the lovely comment. It's nice to see one with some actual thought...I'm sure you know what I mean. He hee.
