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!

Avatar Wan is probably my favorite character so I just love this. His expression makes him seem formidable and peaceful which is just great for Wan.
Also a slight air authority here befitting a man of his stature.
Thanks for posting

This is by far the best-looking imitation of the art style used in Beginnings, at least that I've seen.

I just discovered your work courtesy of Reddit and can't wait to buy this, Korra and your eventual Aang print. They're drop-dead gorgeous. I've seen a lot of fan art in my time, but these are just... You should be proud.
