Description Avatar Month October 16th: Ursa

swanswan's Avatar Month, details and a list of themes for each day can be found in swanswan's journal --> [link]

This was inspired by a lullaby my mother used to sing. It was about a mother losing her child and asking passerbys if they've seen him/her.

It was never clear to me how old or what gender said child was. The way I interpret the song is that her child left and hasn't returned, and she longs for the times when she still had a baby to care for.

I decided to make something serious for Ursa, as I think there will be much to be mended when (and if) she returns. I believe she would try to help Azula, who is seen here crushed and into a deep depressive state.

And the baby sleeping is Azula

That was based on a song my Mom used to sing when I was little, it seemed to fit the situation

I usually do humor, but in this case drama seemed more appropriate

Nice right? That's because Ursa doesn't let Azula cut her own hair anymore

I hope that there will be movies of Avatar, and that we'll find out about Ursa. I'm pretty sure she'd try to help Azula.

Ursa seems like the most kind and loving character. If anyone could help Azula, it's Ursa. It would be awesome if they all went out to find Ursa and had some wacky, heart-wrenching adventures.

I believe Ursa would try to help Azula if she came back, maybe Bryke has an extra episode exploring that.

C'est ce que je voulais, cela fait un moment que j'avais fait la connection entre Ursa et cette chanson que ma Mème nous chantait, et ces souvenirs d'enfance à ce temps-ci de l'année me rendent melancolique.

Bittersweet...
It's beautiful. The soft blues are like a sky.
Somehow, it feels both sad, longing and hopeful.
A bit like one of those autumn days you get sometimes. Very beautiful, but somehow melancholic.

vick330 In reply to suntiger745 [2008-10-18 21:05:54 +0000 UTC]

Melancholy but with a tinge of hope is what i was aiming for. Autumn always gets me into a melancholic mood, and I felt my gallery should have something else than humor to add variety.

I felt I needed something serious since most of my work is humor. Plus this idea hit me and wouldn't leave me alone, and had to be exorcised

It is good thing, but your work always looks seriuos to me, but if you felt your self bad (Believe me, Aand will must get so serius, from the beggings of the serie) you must do it will be the best.

HA! everyone's reaction is to always draw ursa and zuzu, but i'm glad you keep to your theme of ursa wanting desperately to save azula. the end made me choke up a bit.

vick330 In reply to sylvacoer [2008-10-17 13:28:56 +0000 UTC]

My first idea was to have Ursa reunited with Zuko, but after a while Azula seemed like it would fit better with the feelings that lullaby evoqued in me. There might be hope for Azula if she shakes off Oxai's influence. My theory is that's he's to blame for her upbringing.

A child may be the worst kid on the block, in the neighborhood, or in a nation,
one hard rule applies:

A parent never gives up on their child.

A parent who does is a complete failure.
