Dolphin Family in the Ocean is a classic sea-life motif. These images offer plenty of room for blues, teals, and greens. For gradients, layer two or three shades and blend gently. Scales, fins, and water bubbles are small detail areas that bring the image to life.
The dolphin family looks especially lively when you color the adults in strong gray or blue-gray and keep the baby calf a bit lighter. The waves in the background get depth through different shades of blue – use light blue for sea spray and foam, darker blue for the wave valleys. The dolphins' eyes should be black or dark brown to emphasize their playful expression. For extra fun, you can accent the water droplets with white colored pencil or wax crayon. Small details like fin markings benefit from fine black lines.
