In this sketch, I depicted what I believed to be the internal skeletal structure of the cartoon character, Teemo. My drawing displays a full set of bones, as it contains nearly all of the easily recognizable bones. The primary bones include the skull, jaw, spinal cord, shoulders, ribs, pelvis, arm bones, leg bones, hands, feet, fingers, and toes. I picked Teemo to draw, as he has a unique body shape consisting of a very large skull, with very small legs and arms. When I drew his skeleton, I exaggerated the pelvis to span the entire width of his midsection, causing it to be wide and thin. Additionally, I drew his arm bones and leg bones very short in length. This gave Teemo a unique look compared to a normal human. I used creativity in my drawing by customizing the features of the skull. In my reference picture, his eyes were shut and rather short in length, and the nose was not very prominent. To compare with his large skull size, I drew his eye sockets very large, which is how I visualized his appearance with his eyes open. I also increased the size of his nose, as I imagined it would look like. Additionally, I kept his mouth small, to contrast with the wide length of his mandible.
Personally, I enjoyed this piece because I was able to pick my own cartoon character that was meaningful to me. The requirements allowed me to be creative and draw the skeleton how I wanted to, which allowed me free use of my imagination.
