SHARK WEEEEEK


If you haven't already figured it out from my header, it is once again SHARK WEEK (also known as Megan's favorite holiday)!! As usual, Kristen has started up her wonderful Shark Week drawing challenge--one shark per day. This year we're also using it to try and get our blog-updates rolling again. So without further ado, here are sharks #1 and #2.

I thought I'd read up and try to actually learn a little this time, so I checked out the wiki entry (you can learn, too!). My favorite fun fact about oceanic whitetips is that it is an "aggressive but slow-moving fish [that] dominates feeding frenzies..." :
(if it's a pie feeding frenzy then I'm the same way!)

"...and is a danger to shipwreck or air crash survivors"

Now some actual sketches. Sorry for the crappy iphone quality pics, I will replace them with nice scans once I get home :O

08 Shark week! -- Great hammerhead

Huzzah! It's shark week!! So...every year when this blessed event happens, artists unite to draw these magnificent creatures all week. First up is the Great Hammerhead!

I tried doing some watercolor sharks first, but they turned out so awfully that I gave up and did the rest in photoshop. The paper just didn't agree with me, but I put them up anyway.
