"Hi! We're drawing animals today. After I talked about caricaturing, we're going to go ahead and move right along by keeping that in mind. If you're stuck, I'm going to show you how by just embellishing the most prominent feature of an animal, anybody can guess what it's going to be. Here's a basic face that's easy enough to draw. I'm going to draw little spots here, maybe some buck teeth jetting out, and maybe some long ears. We're going to think to ourselves that is a rabbit. Going along those same lines, we're going to keep our basic face. I'm going to erase those teeth and we're going to draw some pointy teeth coming down. He's got some ears. Some might say hey that's a bear, but if I were to add a big mane of hair on top, what are we going to say now? It's a lion. One last character that we can draw with the basic face and if we embellish the most prominent feature of that character. We've got the eyes, the nose, and the little mouth coming down. Let's draw some big long tusks and a rounded head. We've got a fancy looking walrus."
