How to Draw a Dolphin — 1 Way
Let’s start with the back of the dolphin and draw a line.
We round it on the right side and smoothly draw out the figure, touching the line with the tip of the first one. You will get a curved drop like this.
Draw the tail fin. Use an eraser to remove unnecessary lines in the tail area.
Add side fins. In this case, in the upper part of the body and in the lower part.
Draw a round eye and eyebrow.
Draw the nose of the dolphin.
We remove the unnecessary line in the nose area. Add a lip.
We draw a line from the mouth to the fin. We will use this to distinguish between the torso and belly of a mammal. And then we’ll highlight the area with a lighter color.
Remove the line with an eraser. The outline of the dolphin is ready.
We paint it in the desired colors.

Drawing a Dolphin Step by Step — 4 Way
We start the drawing from the head. Draw an oval. It should be noted here that for many it is more convenient to immediately draw a dolphin and draw lines, as in the previous versions. But it’s easier to continue drawing when the head is already marked, and from there you can draw the rest of the details.
In the center of the oval we draw an eye with an eyebrow.
Adding a nose.
We remove the small line crossing the nose and draw arcs along the edges of the oval, narrowing in the tail.
We remove the extra lines with an eraser to get a drawing like this.
We draw a wavy line in the middle of the torso to indicate the abdominal area.
We draw a fin on the back, and then on the stomach.
Remove the extra lines and add another fin in the background.
We finish with the caudal fin.
This is how we got the dolphin.
Color it in shades of blue.
How to Draw a Dolphin — 5 Way
A very simple drawing and we will start it with an oval.
From the upper and lower contours of the oval we draw lines tapering at one point.
Remove the unnecessary line from the oval and add a nose and lip.
We remove the extra line. Draw a round eye.
We designate simple lateral fins.
And after them we draw the tail fin.
Using an eraser, we get rid of the lines in the tail area and draw an arc from the lip to the tail.
The dolphin drawing is ready.
We color it in the desired shades.
