Description
Alright, this is for all you Zutarians out there!!I know this isn't a real original idea, but I wanted to try my hand at mythical critters and this is what happened! I started looking up pictures and info about Chinese dragons... and then there was stuff about the Phoenix... and then there was this!...
"In China, early artifacts show the Phoenix (female) as intimately associated with the Dragon (male) -- the two are portrayed either as mortal enemies or as blissful lovers. When shown together, the two symbolize both conflict and wedded bliss."
(I got this info from: [link] )
So, that was the deciding factor for me... yep, it totally screamed Zutara! And ya know what's funny? I found out that the Chinese dragon is the controller of lakes, streams, and rain! While the Phoenix dies in fire and rises from the ashes and represents fire and the sun! So I guess I kinda flipped the elements... but I still like it!!!
(.... Oh, and I just want to live in my own Zutarian world so I don't want to have a big discussion about why Zutara won't happen... or what not... )
Anyway, I hope y'all like it! I had a ton of fun drawing this!... and yes, I was crazy enough to draw all those scales on that dragon XD
Zutara belongs to Nickelodeon... apparently...

Yes. They are Which has me thinking that maybe they thought of the exact same thing you did when you drew this picture.

Thank you!
Just what I need to recover after the irritating presence of Maiko in season Three.
And my Kataanger friends, who will no doubt be rubbing the dancing portion of The Headband in my face tomorrow!
Again, thanks.

It is my pleasure!! I think all Zutarians need a little pick me up after being force fed Maiko and Kataang *gag*
Have courage and ignore the Zutara naysayers!! We will be right in the end!!!

You are welcome. I always see people putting up images of pheonixes and dragons but I really do wonder sometimes if they know what they truely symbolise other than "strength and beauty". So thank you. You've made my day and probably the rest of my year better.
