Celebrating Shark Week By Drawing Sharks!

Each year in mid-July sharks are celebrated around the world during the annual Shark Week events hosted by the Discovery Channel as well as the Shark Fest events hosted by National Geographic. Below you’ll find video recordings from my past live workshop that teach you all about sharks and how to draw 3 species of sharks; a great white shark, a hammerhead shark, and a whale shark. Enjoy!

ALL ABOUT SHARKS AND HOW TO DRAW THEM

So, if you’d like to learn more about sharks and their biology and anatomy, I invite you to watch the recordings below of two live, online workshops I taught on sharks.

Drawing a Great White Shark

If you’d like to follow along to the step-by-step drawing demonstration, I suggest you gather some sketching pencils and download the Great White Shark image I use in the video to help you follow along (49-minutes).

 

Drawing a Hammerhead Shark

If you’d like to follow along to the step-by-step drawing demonstration, I suggest you gather some sketching pencils and download the Hammerhead Shark image I use in the video to help you follow along (75-minutes).

 


Drawing a Whale Shark

If you’d like to follow along to the step-by-step drawing demonstration, I suggest you gather some sketching pencils and download the Whale Shark image I use in the video to help you follow along (75-minutes).

I feel honored to have seen a variety of shark species in my travels, and even swam with hammerheads in the Galapagos Islands which was a thrilling experience! Sadly, sharks are often under-appreciated and sometimes reviled members of marine ecosystems but they play vital roles in their habitats as top predators. I hope these video workshops have taught you a lot about sharks and given you a greater appreciation for their diversity and fascinating anatomy.
