Materials used for drawing

• Plain A4 paper
• Pencil
• Eraser
• Sharpener
• Colours

Step 1
I began my drawing from the head of the seahorse. On the head, I began with the snout and on the snout we have the mouth. After the mouth, I drew the eye and the pectoral fin.

Step 2
At step two, I completed the drawing. I drew the anal fin, the tail and finally the dorsal fin.

Step 3
Here in this step, I drew the body plates all around the body of the seahorse from the head down to the body and the tail. The seahorse does not have scale-like fish.

Step 4
I started shading the seahorse at this stage which I began from the head. I used my orange colour and yellow colour. I also used a pencil to shade the eye of the seahorse and an orange colour to shade its nose.

Step 5
I coloured the body of the seahorse from the neck down to the tail using orange colour and yellow colour.

Step 6
At this step, I concluded the shading of the tail and then went over the entire drawing to shade and make the colouring darker. I also coloured the dorsal fin.
