Materials

Drawing paper, pencil & eraser, sharpie or black marker, Crayola construction paper crayons, and Crayola oil pastels.

Directions

Begin with a large circle in the center of the paper, then an oval at the top, for the opening of the bowl. We add in the horizon line for the background. We use an oval for the fish, then add on detail ( fin, tail, eye)

Once the drawing is done we start by outlining the fishbowl with a black marker.

Using Crayon, color the inside of the bowl with blue for the water and turquoise for the rest of the bowl. Then color in the sand or rocks.

The background and the fish are done with oil pastels. Add details like a shadow on the table, scales on the fish, and some plants in the bowl.
