Drawing of a Dolphin
Learning how to draw a dolphin will always and forever remind me of my son’s elementary school. It’s where I started my classroom art teacher days too, as the Dixie Dolphins of Sherman Oaks, CA. You can image the need to sketch one would come up almost daily. I’d tell the students that they look kind of like a banana, they just need to pay attention to the curves of the fins and tail. This tutorial certainly helped out, and I think even helped to create a yearbook cover or two.
