bottom of his neck alrighty now let's

draw one of his sleeves to the shoulder

that's the shoulder and this is the

other side and a curve line like yeah

good now let's draw one of his arms and

we'll start like this bring it around

and curved line area and another curve

lines there and loop it around and stuff

good now he's holding something so let's

draw an old bull a here good and

[Music]

bring it around stop go up and stop

right there good now let's draw the the

bottom here of his coat or shirt if you

can guess who this is good okay speed

buttons one two three being creative is

looking at things in a new or different

way trying to find new ways to solve

problems make new discoveries or to

experiment like the character we're

drawing now so you see being artistic

it's just one of the many ways of being

creative okay let's draw the bottom of

his pants there's one leg and another

leg right there now let's draw some

funny shoes he's wearing these funny

shoes and just draw a line right there

and we'll do the same on the other side

[Music]

I'm drawn to the curve line right there

good now let's draw his other arm if you

can guess what he's holding in his hand

alright one little oval two three

don't worry if you see just four fingers

most cartoons have four fingers you

guess what he's holding alright later on

you might want to add your own ideas to

destroy I'll bet you can think of lots

of things to add to your picture fun

isn't it coming up with your own ideas

now let's continue alright let's show

the top of the table that he's working

on by drawing a long straight line stop

right there then the table would

continue behind him and we'll bring it

out like that good now let's bring

another line here the bottom of the

it here with an oval like so and we're

going to bring the sides down slant them

one side and curve it slant the other

side like that and curl it around and

now we're going to connect it right here

okay here we go just like connecting the

dots bring it over and stop let's see if

you can guess what he is if you haven't

guessed already it's a scientist you can

tell by the long white coat being a

scientist is something like

being an artist they both experiment and

try different combinations of things

his face

[Music]

what color did you choose

you did good choice there we go

he's a funny cartoon isn't he

as a long nose and a very long mustache

[Music]

there we go we're coloring in his

fingers it's alright to change your mind

about what you want to be when you grow

up it's really kind of fun to imagine

yourself doing different things you

might want to be an airplane pilot right

now but soon you could be dreaming of

becoming something else that's just as

exciting that's experimenting with

different ideas alrighty I'm going to

continue coloring in the scientist arm

and his hand here we go there's one of

his arms now I'm going to color in his

other arm like so and try and be real

loose and relaxed just like so

yeah we call

and fun with it all right now I think

I'll choose hmm here's a nice color

first coat a very soft violet color it's

called violet very soft pastel color

there we go

I'm just keeping that wrist moving their

ego and keep moving and Phil head in

there that looks really nice now let's

do the bottom of his coat there we go

[Music]

[Music]

yes I like trying new and different

colors like the scientist it's important

to experiment try using water college to

call your picture or you might even like

to experiment with chalk it's fun to try

new ideas ok I'm going to tell her in

the scientists pants right here there's

part of his pants are showing right here

and ain't shows Brown Oh somebody's

calling their pants hey black that's a

good idea red yes I like the idea of

using red too good choices they're your

own choices I like that

mmm that's pretty good hmm how about a

brown mustache now just indicate the

mustache by hitting some

brown lines like that there you go

and now I'm going to do is hear that be

isn't really not coloring the Harry's

drawing some more like that see that and

now I'm adding some more lines similar

to those other lines it looks pretty

good have fun with it you could make

short hair long hair cartoon you can do

almost anything with a cartoon good

already now I think I'll color in

there's a chemical inside that test tube

and I think I'll choose kind of a bright

pink color noticed i left a shine see

that highlight when i leave that white

that creates a very shiny area so that

would be called a highlight or the light

hits it and creates a nice shine right

there all right Ian let's just fill in

this other area here like that good now

I'm going to color in his shoes

halfway look at that I didn't color all

the way i just colored half of his shoes

and i'll do the same on the other side

like that now I'll take some grey and

just indicate the part of this little

countertop or he's standing next to the

counter in the and the lab and now just

indicate some color like that
