Anthropomorphism!

What?

Pick an intimate object or animal and make them a loveable, or creepy, or terrifying character! Do this by drawing eyes, gloves, and other elements taught in class. Or watch vintage 1930's cartoons for your own inspiration. I've listed some of my favourites below.

Collaboration!

On top of drawing your character, you can choose to draw and ink an element on it's own. Meaning pick a mouth, a set of eyes, eyebrows, shoes, etc and post just one to your project. I will be taking some of my favourites from each project and combining it into one collaborated character!
