cute is mostly round shapes, big eyes and one small problem. here are eight, each drawing itself so you can see the order of the lines.
the pigeon who is not sharing. make the snack bigger than the head. that's the whole joke.
what makes a doodle cute
round first. start with one soft shape for the body. corners can come later, or never.
eyes low and wide apart. dots near the middle of the face look small and sweet.
give it one problem. a sandwich too big, a sock it shouldn't have, a sound it heard. that's where the cute comes from.
let the line wobble. a shaky line looks alive.
seven more to copy
the hedgehog who chose snacks. a round body and a zigzag back. the nightcap makes it sleepy.
the owl who definitely heard something. tall body, huge eyes, one wing pointing. alarm is easy to draw.
the carp who owns the bathtub now. an oval in a tub. eyes shut and a smile, and it owns the place.
the owl checking the clock. a party hat on a round owl, eyes turned to the side.
the yule cat brought a spare sock. a giant cat is just a big round shape peering in at something small.
the brave deflating penguin. fold the head over. a wilted shape looks brave somehow.
the yule cat eyes a new sock. half-closed eyes and a sock. it's thinking about it.
draw one for someone
in wiggle together you draw in black pen, fold the doodle into a paper plane and throw it to a moon you share with one friend. they color it in, and every line keeps wiggling.
