Animals Galore

I love different animals especially drawing them!  My first animal I draw was an exotic underwater animal called as a dolphin jumping out of the water. • In order to prevent Dolphins from drowning in their sleep half of their brain will sleep so they can still breath? The second animal was a mocking bird sitting on a tree branch. • The oldest Northern Mockingbird on record was 14 years and 10 months old.
Finally the third was another amazing underwater animal, a sea turtle swimming in the ocean. • Sea turtles can be up to 2 - 6 feet long.

Tip ~ For drawing I always sketch the outline and then add detail and color it! ❤️
