hey hi Fells how you

doing oh boy you guys are clowning

around buddy buddy listen since this is

your last day okay what do you say we do

one last drawing with the boys and girls

well okay sure I say clowns do you have

your crayons with you of course who

visits py land without crays and how

about some paper yeah you got the paper

great great all right what do you say we

get started Kido that sounds good to

this is going to be

fun okay let's get going since buddy is

joining the circus let's draw an animal

from the circus a

seal all

righty I'm going to start

by drawing a curve line right

there

then bring this line

down and stop right

there all righty you think of some other

animals that I've drawn

[Music]

that you might have seen in the

circus that's right an elephant that be

do an

elephant and a lion that's another good

answer very

good

and let's just

[Music]

continue down that'll be the back of the

seal and we'll just continue continue

and curve it around like

that and for his tail we'll

just do some curve lines like

so bring it

up bend over and stop very

nice all righty now I think I'll put a

circle right

here for the seals High

and another little

circle right there very nice and we'll

just put a little

eyebrow all right he needs a mouth so

let's do that

now and just a small line right here for

the inside of the mouth you see

that and a small line right here for his

nostril little opening in his nose very

nice let's just put a small line here

also just to show a little

wrinkle where his fin is bending like

that and now let's draw a circular

platform that the seal is performing

on you a lot of the animals when they

perform they usually stand on these

supports and end the

round and we'll just put one side right

there and bring this around because it's

curved and it's round now I'm going to

put a design on the box and you can

follow along or add your own ideas let's

just try putting some kind of

design now just go up like that come

back down and go up and bring that line

down they kind of look like little

triangles don't they that's what they

are see that and we'll just do the same

thing we'll put smaller triangles inside

the big triangle like that and see how

that creates a pattern you can make up

your own you don't have to copy py

exactly use your own ideas all right I'm

going to put a little circle in here and

a little circle right there and another

little circle looks pretty good

all right now I think I'll put some

whiskers seals have very long whiskers

so let's do that there we go just like

so and right here one

two three

whiskers and now let's draw some curved

lines right

here just to indicate the ring that the

seal is

in and the ring is usually a big circle

that all the performers perform

[Music]

in like that you see

that all right H what could be on here

let's just put a little line there to

show the other fin now what could be on

his nose can anybody

guess a a a

ball that's

right that's exactly what the seal loves

to do let's get a circle right here and

I want to get my wrist going in a

circular motion and relax and when I'm

ready here we go bring

it and

up and

connected you have to practice Circle

are very difficult to draw so practice

your

circles all right now I'm going to put a

design on the

ball it's just a curve line like that

look at

that you can put any design on your ball

all righty well that about finishes it

but I see something I'd like to

do right here and then we'll be finished

it's just just shows a little sawdust or

sand or gravel or whatever there we go

now let's see what the seal has to say

picture do your

stuff oh oh budy

[Music]

bear I look forward to working with

you oh shs that's nice hi everybody sing

a song it's nice of you to join us

[Music]

buddy hi g*ng hi py hi I sure am going

to miss buddy Elmer don't tell me you're

leaving papy land too nope Sunny I've

packed to move into buddy Bear's Place

now that he's left for the circus think

of the parties I could have there the

place is

huge oh

Elmer well boys and girls even though

this is a sad day for us in papy land

because buddy bear is left to join the

circus we still have to carry on so

let's color the picture of the seal we

drew

earlier all righty and now I'll begin by

using this color for our seal

and I'm going to shade just the side of

the seal okay we're going to leave a

very shiny highlight in the

center I'll show you how that's going to

look and again remember to choose any

color that you like you might have a

favorite color you might want to

use and that's okay because it's your

drawing and I want you to have fun with

it see that see how I'm shading the side

just like that I'm not going to fill it

in all the

way there we

go leaving this highlight right here now

let's color the tail

in right there we

go being a good friend is not always

easy it's hard for the rest of us to

think of Buddy leaving Happy Land but if

we are true friends friends we must be

understanding and allow buddy to follow

his dream I just hope buddy bear has

thought this through and that he's sure

it's the right thing for him okay let's

continue here's a very nice color for

the ball A nice bright yellow look at

that I call this Sunshine

yellow very

[Music]

good all right

and I think I'll just take my red

crayon and make a

red stripe just like

that and we'll leave a little highlight

right

there and I'm going to use

blue for the platform that he's on look

at

that very

nice

okay look at that what color did you

choose oh I think Green's a nice color

I'm going to use green for the the

design that's on top on the outside of

the

platform and I think I will use green

for the

top there we

go look at that this colors look nice

together

[Music]

all

right there we

go there we go don't worry about

finishing your drawing with papy you can

always finish your drawing

later that's a good time to add new and

imaginative

ideas I don't want you to feel rushed

there we

go I'm I'm going to I'm going to add

this yellow ochre it's called yellow

ochre this color and I'm going

to doesn't show up too good so I think

I'm going to use the same Brown let's

see what happens when we put the brown

right

over the yellow I guess it just makes a

golden color see

that it's fun to mix and match colors

and overlap color under other colors and

you should do a lot of

experimenting there we go look at

that all righty and I think I'll just

use my orange

cray for the ring look at

[Music]

that and we'll just touch that

up there that looks colorful now let's

see your drawings great they're all

candidates for the Hall of frames I say

speaking of the Hall of Frames let's go

there

[Music]
