How to Draw a Cartoon Shark
A cartoon shark is a great subject to draw for beginning artists.
In this lesson I want to show you how to draw a cartoon shark. The shark is a formidable underwater predator, but here it looks cute and funny.
You can see that the shark has a large head and a short body that tapers towards the tail. The mouth is very large and sharp teeth are visible. The tail is small and has pointed ends. Try to depict all these features in your drawing.
Consistently follow all the steps in this instruction and try to draw the same lines as in my example. So, take all the necessary art supplies and enjoy the creative process.
