How to Draw a Shark Face
Draw a shark face in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the head.
Step 1: The head
Draw a big egg lying on its side, pointy end on the left. Fill most of the page!
Tip The fat round end goes on the right.
Step 2: The fin
On top of the head, behind the middle, draw a tall triangle fin leaning back.
Tip Start and stop on the head line. Rub out the head line under it.
Step 3: One huge eye
In the front half of the head, above the middle, draw one huge round eye with a black dot.
Tip Leave a round white shine near the top of the dot.
Step 4: Belly line
Start at the snout tip. Draw a long gentle line under the eye, stopping at the back end.
Tip Leave a little gap between the eye and the line.
Step 5: The mouth
Start on the line by the snout. Swing a big smile down and up to the line past the eye.
Step 6: Teeth
Hang 3 small pointy teeth from the top of the mouth. Stand 2 on the bottom, in the gaps.
Tip Space them out so the pink shows between.
Step 7: Gills
Behind the eye draw 3 short curved gill lines side by side, like 3 brackets.
Tip Start above the middle of the head and stop below it.
Step 8: Bubbles
In front of the snout draw 3 round bubbles floating up, biggest at the bottom, smallest on top.
Step 9: Cream belly, pink mouth
Colour the belly under the long line cream, around the mouth. Colour the mouth pink and leave the teeth white.
Step 10: Colour the top blue
Colour the head and fin blue, around the cream belly. Leave the eye white.
