We continue our tutorial on how to draw ocean animals with a very fierce looking shark.

Not long ago we learned how to draw a dolphin, so it’s only right that we draw a sea dweller who is often portrayed as the enemy of dolphins. As well as the enemy of most things.

These ferocious fish give you shivers and I wouldn’t be happy to see one in the ocean. But that doesn’t mean these animals aren’t awesome. I mean look at those dinosaur teeth. They’re awesome.

Whatever the characteristics of this animal are, it is very interesting to draw, so let’s learn to draw it.

Next it’s time to draw the mouth. Start at the left end of the curve you drew in the previous step.
