|width=50%|Strong Bad's boxing glove holds a marker in front of a whiteboard that has been lined so as to look like notebook paper, and the music from the [[Trogdor]]-drawing scene in [[dragon]] plays throughout the video. As he says the title, it appears on the screen, with "Skills" in yellow, "Artist" in horizontal rainbow, and "of an" slowly fading in.

|On the right side, he draws a line with spikes pointing outward, curving inwards between each spike. He closes the shape with two diagonal, inward-facing lines at opposite edges, meeting each other in the middle, making it look like an umbrella. He draws three horizontal lines inside.

Between both lines, inside the umbrella, he draws a short horizontal line pointing outwards, with a curl at the end. At the back of the umbrella, he draws a vertical line touching the bottom of the page, and three outwards horizontal lines coming out of the top of that line— one pointing diagonally upwards, one pointing straight, and one pointing diagonally down.
