started G whiz Jody what gave you such a
great idea well a little birdie told me

of my fur it's uh it's orange
yeah and all I have are blue and yellow
and and red paint how can I paint my own

paint simple my furry little pal by
blending blending blending blending
blending
blending Sizzle you can mix blue yellow
and red paints in different ways to get
more colors you can mhm
observe start with some blue
blend in some red and now it's
purple follow the bouncing ba*ls when
blue and yellow get together there's
your
green you don't have to be neat just

yellow for a perfect Orange

yellow to get orange yeah now I can
paint
my nuzzle nuzzle what's wrong nothing is
wrong Everything Is Right Sizzle I'm
going to be an artist
what's happening youing Julie oh we're
watching animason the artist yeah Miss
Mason has been teaching us how to make
beautiful
pictures today we're going to draw
faces the first thing you have to do is
to draw the shape of an oval sort of
like an
egg now take your time as you're filling
in your oval shape
kind of like that now I'm going to show
you a little secret in order to decide
where we're going to put our mouth and
our eyes and our noses we're going to
draw these lines in very
lightly we're going to start by drawing
one line down the middle this way and
another one going across like that now
we know that eyes and noses and mouths
come in different shapes and sizes so
we're going to put the shape shape and
size of eyes that we want right
here like
this now the nose is kind of in the
shape of a tie kind of long down
here like that and a little bit wide
down
here now we're going to place our line
where our mouth would
be oh about there so now let's get back
to that little secret we talked about
what we're going to do is take our
eraser and just take out those lines we
put in
earlier just about like
that get the chin
so kids those are some pointers on how
to draw a face now let's see what you
can do okay okay okay good luck

the same thing there just isn't any one
color that's right for painting all of

idea oh you sure yeah I thought instead
of us all using the same color paint we
might try using these different color
chalks everyone can pick the color they
feel is right for their own skin Oh and

partner then the partner uses that color
to draw the picture wow good idea Jody
