"On behalf of Expert Village my name is Paul Louis and today I'm going to teach you how to draw Christmas cartoon characters. The very first thing we are going to do is start to clean the slate as you can see here. So we are going to start with a Christmas character that everybody knows and is familiar with which is a snowman. So let us start with the face, first we are going to start with his long carrot type of nose. We are going to make a long thin triangle like so now there is a reason why we are starting with the face first and you'll see what that reason is as we build a face. But a snowman eyes are a very simple so they are usually just little black dots and usually his mouth is also made out of a buttons. So we are going to represent those buttons by drawing some more little black dots and kind of a U shape like so. That is the snowman's face."
