Let's draw two crabby crabs crab-walking on the beach

Today I want to draw 2 crabby crabs crab-walking on the beach. We'll draw some ocean waves, and 2 crabs with very grumpy faces. This will be filled with a few crab facts, as well tips on how to rescue ourselves from crabby feelings. We'll talk a little bit about taking a deep breath when we feel crabby. And we'll talk about where crabs take deep breaths--under water AND on land! Here are 3 ideas your imagination can wonder about based on our drawing today: Why do we call grumpy people crabby? What if you had claws instead of hands--how would you do things differently? When you feel crabby, what do you like to do to calm yourself down or cheer yourself up? Imagination Draw Along is an intentionally low stimulation show that gives artists space to develop confidence in decision making-- because there’s no wrong way to do art. Want to draw more beach scenes? Try a sandcastle! Not into feeling the sand between your toes? How about drawing friendly aliens landing their spaceship.
