Description
Wow. I'm finally done. This took forever...I was trying to do a good coloring job and the drawing itself took a long time because I felt that I owed it to Zuko and Katara to draw them well. This is my very first ever piece of Zutara fanart, and I have to say that I'm pretty proud of it because of all the effort and time I put in. However, I'm always open to critique, in fact, I encourage it, because I have a LOT to learn still. So please, let me know what you think. And it definitely looks better in full view, btw (at least, I think so).The scene turned out differently than what I had originally thought it would be (as it so often does), and I'm not quite sure of the story here (feel free to write one if you'd like), but Katara had collapsed from exhaustion or pain or something of that nature, and Zuko was there to pick her up and carry her home safely like the silent hero that he is. However, he didn't quite expect how much holding her that close to him would affect his heart rate....and how soft and warm and right she felt being in his arms. He just doesn't know quite what to do with her, and about her.
Poor Zuko, what a dilemma, because at this point in the series she doesn't exactly like him, and he can't let any of his own feelings get in the way of training Aang...and that's not even taking into account Aang's feelings for the lovely waterbender. This is why the following song made me think of Zuko's situation with Katara right now....
-----------------------------------
"You spurn my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I’m hurt
And if I start a commotion
I run the risk of losing you
And that’s worse
Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with
I can’t see much of a future
Unless we find out what’s to blame
What a shame
And we won’t be together much longer
Unless we realize that we are the same
Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with."
"Ever Fallen in Love"
Pete Yorn
Shrek 2 Soundtrack
....This recent Zutara obsession was inspired by Fandomme's fanfiction Stormbenders...its so awesome, character development and what not, you could actually believe all of it happening in the show.

religiously. I'm hoping its not completely over. Zuko will have to find his mom, so they can't just leave us hanging.

I love this piece and the moon looks awsome as a lightsource. I aslo love Katara's expression, although I think it would have been better if Zuko was looking at her, but I'm no artist, it's just my opinion. All in all, worthy of a fave with no doubt! Gret piece!

It's really hard to see because his eyes are so small, but Zuko IS actually looking at her (his eyes are angled down and towards her even though his face is pretty much angled to the front). Thanks for the fav and the more detailed comment! It's nice to get opinions.

OMG!!!
This is excellent
Beautiful colouring, maybe I would use less saturated colours, as it's night time; but it's awesome anyway.

Thanks...yeah, there are lots of songs that could be used to represent Zutara, but I felt that this one tied the most to actual canon. Kind of XD
