"Hello, I'm Matt Cail on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to show you today how to draw a snowman cartoon for this holiday season. Rather than drawing a straight circle make a 2 dimensional snowman what I want you to do is take your pencil. Also helps to not have your pencil ultra sharp that may seem a little counter intuitive but we don't want super strong dark lines. They are intimidating and they overly commit us just kind of make a general circle right here. What we are going to do we are not going to have a solid notice already you know. Is this a straight round circle? No it's not, it looks a lot more like a snowman looks, yes it does. This is also easier to draw than a circle cause you don't have to worry about having a perfect curve have the perfect slope all the way around to make a perfect circle. Now you can just kind of drag your pencil around have some squiggles there is going to be a little lumping, this is made out of snow this is not chiseled concrete here. So definitely do this around until you have a circle don't over do it. If you have lines that you don't like bring out your handy eraser and lightly go over some of the lines you don't like and equally lightly brush away. Until you have the rough shape that you want and then you finish with your snowman's head."
