Learn to draw and paint the animals you see in the ocean and coral. --- Remember, I encourage everyone to practice first and then jump into the final projects.
In step 1, we will learn to draw several sea animals crab, seahorse, turtle, puffer fish, and tropical fish. We are drawing with markers for practice before we do the final watercolor painting. Step-by-step videos are provided for each animal. I have also provided a PDF with my examples and photographs of these animals.
Step 2 take three of your favorite animals and draw the fish on the watercolor paper with a pencil.
Step 3 paint them with lots of control with your brushwork. Then add coral in the background plus add detail and personality to our characters.
