How to Draw Shark Fins
Sharks are popular animals to draw. They are drawn for many different kinds of art, ranging from kid's art to professional paintings to cartoons. It is a bit difficult to draw the dorsal fin so that it does not look like that of a dolphin or whale. The difference is the slant on one side and, on some sharks, a bit of a razor appendage.
