Choosing Whale Shark Colors

Whale Sharks are beautiful yet simple creatures in terms of coloring. Their natural choice of colors is not very wide, but has specific patterns which you can have fun with when coloring.

  • For the belly, use a lighter shade of grey or white. This mimics the real color schemes of whale sharks in nature.
  • The spots and stripes characteristic to whale sharks should be darker than the main body color. Pick a dark grey or blue for this.
  • For variety, you can experiment with different shades of blue and teal for the body. This could hint at underwater lighting and add more depth to the picture.
  • Don't forget to add some color to the whale shark's eye. A simple black dot would suffice, but you could also add a tiny white dot for a reflective effect.
  • You could color the background light blue to represent water, lightening the color near the surface and darkening it as it gets deeper.

Don't limit yourself to the natural colors of a whale shark. Feel free to use any color you like and get creative, the goal is to have fun and relax while coloring. After all, it's your personal art piece.
