Description "Shark Week 2017 sketches"

Isurus oxyrinchus, Carcharodon carcharias,  Lamna ditropis, Galeocerdo cuvier. Some sketches I did for Shark Week 2017.

I didn't get to do a shark sketch a day I wanted to because my anatomy and physiology final happened the same week. The shortfin mako was inspired by a great photo that can be found in the August issue of National Geographic. It was a funny coincidence that International Tiger Day fell on that same Saturday, so I sketched a tiger shark to honor that day. The salmon shark proved a challenge in trying to not make it look too much like a great white shark. The great was the first and proved to be the easiest to draw, probably thanks to my familiarity with the species. 

Completed in late July.

Done using pencils.
