What's In This Picture
As you look at the page, you will find a massive whale shark as the center of attention. Its skin is decorated with unique star patterns and dot patterns that give it a magical look. Perched comfortably on its back is a small, happy fish enjoying a free ride. Surrounding our main characters are several round bubbles, and if you look closely, you will see some of them have tiny smiley faces! The bottom of the ocean is lined with textured rocks, swaying seaweed, and intricate coral pieces. In the background, swirl patterns and waves represent the moving current, while extra stars float around to add a touch of whimsy to the entire sea floor.
Coloring Tips
Whale sharks are usually a beautiful dark blue or grey, but since this is a cartoon, feel free to use bright purples or teals. The star and dot patterns look fantastic if you leave them white or color them with a contrasting neon yellow. For the coral and seaweed, try using a mix of vibrant pinks and deep greens to make the reef pop against the blue water. The bubbles with faces can be a very light sky blue or even a shimmering silver. If you want to add some depth, try coloring the water at the top of the page a lighter shade and making it darker as you reach the rocks at the bottom.
Did You Know?
Did you know that whale sharks are the largest fish in the entire world? Even though they are huge, they are known as gentle giants because they eat tiny creatures called plankton. Each individual whale shark has a unique pattern of spots, just like a human has unique fingerprints!
Try This!
After you finish coloring, try counting all the bubbles on the page to see how many have smiley faces. You can also give the whale shark and its little fish friend names and imagine where they are traveling to in the big blue ocean.
