Draw a curved line above each cheek to outline the eyes. Within each eye, draw a circle within a circle. Shade between them to indicate the pupil. Then, draw a curved line above each eye to form the eyebrows.
Below the nose, draw a wide curved line to form the smiling mouth. Place a short line at each corner, and enclose a rectangle shape beneath it. These are the teeth. Draw a short line between them.
