We are really excited to add another tutorial to our growing collection of how to draw sea animals.

We had fun learning how to draw a dolphin a few days ago, so now we’re moving on to another marine mammal, this time the largest one.

Since this tutorial is for kids and beginners I thought a cartoon whale would be the best fit and I think this is one of the easiest ways to draw a whale.

Your child may think this is a difficult drawing but once they follow the steps, they will be able to draw a whale on their own in no time. And once they have mastered this pose, they can move on to drawing different poses, different scenarios and continue to develop their drawing style.

Let’s draw!

Now draw the belly. Start on the right side and draw a line to the fin. Continue on the other side of the fin.

Also, draw a straight line for the tail.

Draw an eye.
