Whale Shark in Sunlit Shallows

Light rays fall from a rippled surface onto a spotted whale shark facing right. A group of small fish swims above its head, while seagrass and rocks border the sandy bottom. Leave the rays pale and try different blues in the surrounding water.

Blue whale shark with white spots, seven golden fish at upper right and green seagrass above a white sandy floor. — A digital example of this practice; uncolored areas are intentional.

1. Soft blue — whale shark body and fins
2. Golden yellow — seven small fish
3. Sage green — seagrass

Color the whole shark blue around each white spot. Keep the gill and mouth lines visible.
Color all seven small fish at the upper right yellow, including their fins and tails.
Follow each seagrass blade with green. Leave sand, rocks, bubbles, water and sunbeams white.

Count seven yellow fish and check the grass along both edges. The shark's white spots and the white gaps between plants should remain clear.
