AtLA - Sunrise

Yonder mountain so high
I can't make it all on my own

Up against the sky so bright
That I can't even close my eyes...

I'm becoming ridiculously fond of this pairing, so! At last, here is an actual finished fanart for them. I may end up writing a drabble to go with this, but the basic idea came from my early attempts to draw them kissing, which mostly resulted in frustration and me thinking, "Aw, phooey, it's so hard to keep the chemistry in a kiss when she has to bend way over to get to him..."

...and I can't resist a challenge, so I started getting creative, thumbnail-sketching different positions in which one may actually mack on someone in a wheelchair while retaining a modicum of sexyfine. This ended up being my favorite, partly because it's so Toph. Hush and lemme sit on you, Flyboy.

(Light and shadow, woot! Yes, this is the Northern Air Temple, and yes, the sun is supposed to have just risen over the mountains. Why is she in her Fire Nation clothes? It's summer and she's hot? I dunno, I just liked the visual contrast of red and green. I continue to get incrementally better (I think?) at digital painting, through simple experimentation and practice, though I have a long way yet to go...)
