Our characters are shaped like gourds or rocks or water bubbles, with eyes.

Draw two circles a large one and a smaller one above it. Outline the circles to make a gourd shape. Add feet like blobs or peanut shapes if you like, this gives the opportunity to practice basic body pose.

EYES
Our gourd people are all about eyes. Draw different eyes to express different emotions and feelings. Example...

     Surprise: Two circles side by side with black dots in the center. Eyebrows are high.
     Disgust:  The top of the eye is a low curve and a half dot under each. Eyebrows are low.
     Worry Eyes curved at the top, Dots to the side. Eyebrows to the side slightly.
     Curiosity: The eyes are wide open the dots to the side, eyebrows are high.
     Anger: Eyes tilt down leaning toward the middle, with a half dot under the eyelid.
     Embarrassment: Dot in the middle and outline at the sides.
