Cool Characters: Elephant Rabbit-Eating Hunter

So the kids in this class randomly created a series of characters that we randomly decided would be in a forest setting (to influence the nature of their character, outfits, etc). This was our first one: The Elephant Rabbit-Eater, whom I turned into a hunter for illustrative purposes.

This lesson stresses simple shapes- building from big to small shapes (main body shapes to the details), creating an environment with foreground, background, and middle-ground elements, and creating depth with overlapping shapes. Have fun!
