Description
I’ll take off my halo, if you take off your wingsYou don’t have to be invincible cause I sure ain’t no saint
Woohoo! I woke up bright and early to submit this since I wouldn't stay up until three in the morning to do it. I was pretty darn excited about this since I suggested this theme. (I don't know if I was the only one who did or not, but it was in my list.) I had a little freak out after a few moments of disbelief when I saw it as one of the themes.
But the alternate title to this would be "I'll Take off my Halo." I really love the Painted Lady and Blue Spirit, but I've never really drawn them together before so I thought I'd have fun. I wanted this picture so have a sort of intimate feel.
The song I sorta spammed while drawing this was "Just by Being You (Halo and Wings) by Steel Magnolia. After I finished though, I realized "Halo" by Beyonce fit pretty well too. So I included a snippet of the lyrics at the beginning and end of this description.
Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound

This is gorgeous. The blue spirit and the painted lady. A team. Zuko and Katara underneath it all.

Omg, I recognized the lyrics of both of those songs before reading the rest of what you said, seriously, you used some of my fave lyrics! Beautiful job

They're some of my favorite songs. Although I admit I like "Halo" because every time I hear it, I think of this guy I really like. So I may be biased on that one.

Well, my muse is very fickle at times. So I frequently go running after inspiration with a pointy stick.

It's what the professionals say you have to do when you get art/writer's block. Just push through it. And I like chasing after it with a pointy stick. Punishment for deserting me. I also go looking around Facebook's Pieces of Flair and gather the ones about writer's block. They're fun ways to let go of that frustration.

Thanks. I've been perfecting it for years. Yeah. Zuko's actually also wiping off her makeup a bit too.
