Use color. • Why does this artwork appeal to you? Explain. Use elements of art and principles of design to discuss it. • Name and briefly describe Leavens 6 tips to mutate his rabbits. Number each and provide a brief summary. • Draw your one of your own original characters 3 different times using 3 out of Leavens 6 tips. For example 1 sketch will show your character with added body parts, your second sketch will have your character with human attributes added, and a third sketch will show exaggerated body parts.
