Description
Companion piece to Spiritual State that I did last year. Coloring and lining this was too much for me and my laptop. I really like how this came out but this style was very challenging so I know a lot of little things could've been better if I had some more experienece. Despite how difficult this was for me to do, I'm already thinking that I should do another similar piece for Aang!

I adore this and bought prints of both this one and Korra to prove it. Still waiting for that final piece of the puzzle (Aang) to complete the trio. Would love to grab that as a print, too!

Spiritual State is more minimal in its spatial breakup and smooth in its shapes; the more dense spatial breakup and roiling shapes of this piece entice my eyes to wander more.

This is really gorgeous. Beginnings 1 and 2 were one of my favourite chapters from Korra, and its nice to see an Avatar Wan tribute. Would definitely love to see Aang's version of this
