Introduction
When I was a kid, and learnt how to draw a shark, it was all I’d draw. Over the years, I lost touch with this desire to draw sharks, until recently, when I got into drawing once again. Now, I wanted to improve the way I’d draw sharks, and for that, I decided to learn the basics once again through the help of a few YouTube tutorials. And if you’re willing to learn as well, I recommend you do the same.
Drawing a shark need not be difficult. To draw a shark, you first draw the fish’s outline, add its fins and eyes, and then the mouth. You can manipulate the look on its eyes and mouth to change its impressions. You can also draw the shark in various poses underwater, for instance the diving pose, swimming pose, and so on.

It’s a very easy tutorial, and not that difficult to follow. There’s nothing complex about the approach, making it perfect for kids to work with.

In this step by step video tutorial, the artist vividly portrays the techniques that are to be used to draw a realistic looking shark. The drawing is smooth, and there are no rough patches here. The artist draws from a perspective, which shows that he’s viewing the shark from the side, and a lower angle. You can give it your own perspective, but be careful as to how the change in view will affect the drawing.

Fierce Looking Shark Drawing
The fierce look for this shark has been achieved thanks to its facial expression. Look at the eyes, and the way the shark is grinding its teeth.

Stunning Lifelike Sketch of a Great White Shark
This is one of the best shark sketches I’ve ever seen. In fact, I think that this is by far the best shark drawing I’ll ever see in my life. It’s perfect in every way, and from every angle. The shades, the amount of light falling on its body, and the overall appeal of the drawing, are just phenomenal. All that being said, this is a really difficult drawing to work on. I myself faced problems while working on it. If you ask me, I suggest you gain some experience with pencil shading first before you work on this drawing.
