In this drawing lesson, you will learn how to draw an orca step by step. This instruction consists of only nine steps.

I have prepared for you a new, exciting lesson in which you can learn how to draw an orca step by step. The orca looks like a dolphin and is considered a cetacean animal.

The orca is recognized as the largest representative of the dolphin family, and it is the only one among cetaceans that is considered a predator. You can apply the skills you learned in this lesson if you want to draw an underwater world or a seascape.

In this lesson, you will first draw the outline of the orca torso, then add its fins and facial features. If you follow these instructions carefully, you will end up with a very cute and realistic drawing.
