I like making faces on objects, even if they aren’t humans. A skillet can look brave. A teacup can look sleepy. A pumpkin can look silly and cheerful.
Eyebrows show the attitude. Eyes show excitement or calmness. Mouth shapes show happiness, surprise, or worry. Even shadows can make a character feel thoughtful or dramatic.
Bright colors feel playful. Soft colors feel calm. Dark colors feel mysterious. Color is like emotion on the page.
Here are a few sketches where I am learning to show emotion.
Art lets me say things without talking.
