Character Design Activity

Designing characters, whether or a comic book or a children's book, is hard work.  An artist wants to make a character that people can understand and relate to.  When it comes to design, not all characters need to be complex.  In fact, artists like Paul Rand and Ed Emberley are famous for their simple designs.  Your objective for this activity is to make a new letter-size document called "shape_char" and design 5 characters using colors and only basic shapes and lines (circle, square, line, etc.).  You must name each of these.
