Each of the sea creatures that demonstrated in the videos start with a circle. Now you could draw the circle or you could trace the circle with a drinking cup.
How to draw different sea creatures with a circle.
To start each drawing of the sea creatures with a circle, you need to figure out where the center of the sea creature will be in your drawing. Because the main circle for most of the drawings is the center focus of the creature. Also you will need to decide on how big your creature will be by choosing the right size drinking cup or drawing the right size circle free hand. Once you have your circle in place, then you can develop it further.
Curved lines are key to developing the sea creatures.
As you draw and follow the steps, you will discover that the curved line is used often. Why? Because the sea creatures are organic. Sea creatures are natural. Therefore they need to be curvy and wavy, so they may wiggle and move through the water. They are not stagnant. In addition, the curved lines make your art work look more interesting to view. The audience will need to follow those curved lines through the composition as they view each element of the drawing.
