Drawing is a super fun way to be creative, especially when you draw characters you love, like Flounder from Disney’s The Little Mermaid. Let’s learn how to draw Flounder step by step. Grab your markers and paper, and let’s get started!
Start by drawing Flounder’s nose. Make a sideways “U” shape that looks like the letter “C.” Then, draw a curved line for his mouth. Add a small line for his cheek next to the mouth, and draw another “U” shape underneath for his open mouth. Don’t forget to draw a little tongue inside!
Above the mouth, draw another cheek line. Then, make two circles for Flounder’s eyes, one above each cheek. Inside each eye, draw a smaller circle for the shiny part, and color the bigger circle, leaving the small one white.
Draw Flounder’s chin or lip below the mouth, connecting it to the cheek. Next, draw his forehead by starting above the eyes and curving up.
Let’s add Flounder’s top fin! Start with a curve that connects to the forehead. For his body, draw a big curve that comes down and goes out a little at the end. Add little eyebrows above each eye to give him more character.
Draw Flounder’s belly with a curve that doesn’t go all the way to the tail. For the first side fin, draw a curve that comes out, then another curve that starts close to the first but moves away. Connect these two lines. Do the same for the second side fin.
To finish the tail, imagine a line going behind the fin. Draw a curve that comes out and connects to the body. Then, make the tail fin by drawing a curve that goes out and up, followed by a downward curve to the right. Connect the top and bottom with a wavy line.
Add the final details to Flounder’s top fin, which looks like hair. Draw a “V” shape and then another “V” below it. Finish the tail fin with a curve that matches the body.
Great job! You’ve finished drawing Flounder. Now it’s time to color your drawing. Take your time to color it in, and feel free to add extra details like bubbles or a background with Ariel to make your artwork even more special.
Remember, the most important thing about drawing is to have fun and practice. Your drawing might look different from others, and that’s perfectly okay! Enjoy the process and keep creating. Happy drawing!
Flounder’s Underwater Adventure: Take a trip to a local aquarium or watch a video about fish. Observe the different types of fish and their colors. Can you find a fish that looks like Flounder? Draw your version of Flounder with new colors inspired by the fish you saw. Share your drawing with your family or friends and tell them about the fish you found!
Story Time with Flounder: Imagine Flounder is going on a new adventure under the sea. Write a short story about his journey. What new friends does he meet? What challenges does he face? Draw a picture of one scene from your story. Share your story and drawing with your class or family.
Flounder’s Shape Hunt: Go on a shape hunt around your home or classroom. Look for objects that have the same shapes you used to draw Flounder, like circles for eyes or “U” shapes for his mouth. Make a list or draw pictures of the objects you find. How many different shapes can you spot?
