While we don't have proof that aliens exist, stories and legends about aliens have fascinated humans for decades. This alien face drawing is similar to portrayals of alleged "real life" aliens.

What do you think that aliens would look like? Since they evolved independently from humans and animals on Earth, they could look like anything. We might not even be able to recognize or understand them.
In any case, this cartoon alien resembles the "classic" alien face that you see on TV and in movies. When you're done, you could draw a cartoon alien to give your alien a friend.
Your alien can be friendly and peaceful or a scary Earth invader like the aliens from black-and-white movies.
