SciFi and Fantasy Art Yin Yang by Krystal Tyler

Okay, I know it's just a color convention, but I'm tired of seeing good vs. evil drawings where the good guy/creature/whatever is white and the bad guy/creature/whatever is black. What's the deal with that??! What makes white good and black evil? Why does color matter, anyway? Well, here's my rebuttal!

Done in markers, June 12, 2003.

10 Dec 2006	Sophie	Loading... I suppose white is good because white is pure and untouched while black is bad because bad things often happens in "the shadow of the light that is good" I suppose you wouldn't rape a woman in the middle of day cuz day=light=good just like the white wedding dress signifies virginity which is "a woman untouched/unspoiled" but your right it can get rather tiring...Oh boy I was just supposed to say that white is pure...man this is a complicated subject...love your dragons anyway
13 May 2007	Lugg	Loading... But you know, white didn't originally mean good, nor black evil. They signified completeness together, male and female, passive and active, etc. and it was Western influence and Confucius that made white superior. Just clarifying. Really nice, by the way.
13 Jun 2007	Anonymous	Loading... So great! I'm only 14, but I am doing a project on Yin Yang and I would love to use this picture if that's o.k with you. I think it captures what yin yang represents perfectly. Love it. x
26 Jun 2007	Anonymous	Loading... Hey cool picture, would anyone out there be able to draw me a propper cool picture of just a ying yang sign and get back to me that would be great.

20 Mar 2008	Anonymous	Loading... there are two of some of my most favorite things yin yang and dragons completely out of this universe AMAZING!!!! i can even hear the dragons roaring in my head one question is that just a drawing or is that a drawing in 3D because it looks like its 3D because of the detail but it looks like a drawing because of how the background looks(looks like paper) and because of other detail please wright back anonymous.
2 Sep 2008	Dragon overlord	Loading... what’s wrong with the white dragons mouth? does he have some sort of severe gum-desease? or is it because that’s some of the blood left over from a meal?
15 Feb 2009	RedEyedBlackGriffon	Loading... awesome picture, but why were you talkng to yourself?
3 Jun 2010	Greg	Loading... Not a big biblical person but, black started out as portraying evil at the beginning. "I shall walk through the valley the shadow of death and fear no evil" =\
