Pirate Shark With Cutlass and Skull Hat, Sea Animals Fun

A grinning shark dressed as a pirate holds a curved cutlass in one fin while the other fin rests on its hip. It wears a big black tricorn hat with a skull and crossbones on the front, and a belt with a square buckle is cinched around its middle. One eye is drawn with a slanted, mischievous eyebrow, and a row of pointy teeth shows in its smile. Gill lines sit behind the eye, and the tail curls at the bottom. Round bubbles of different sizes float around the shark on the white background. Try coloring the hat in dark gray instead of plain black so the white skull still pops, then use light blues and grays on the body. The bubbles are great for practicing small, careful shading. This free printable also works well for a pirate themed party or an ocean unit.
