Drawing Notes:

The two seahorses are drawn in double dot outline. Their “crowns” are at the top of the page and they face each other.

Fun Fact:

Seahorses have a unique bony “crown” on their heads called a coronet. Like a fingerprint, the coronet is distinct for each seahorse. This is the only difference between our two figures.

A small whale.

Drawing Notes:

The seahorse is facing the right side of the page and is drawn as a silhouette.

Fun Facts:

According to britannica.com, the largest species, the big-bellied seahorse (H. abdominalis), which inhabits the waters off South Australia and New Zealand, can grow up to 35 cm (13.8 inches) in length.

Unusual among fish, a seahorse has a flexible, well-defined neck. It also sports a crown-like spine or horn on its head, termed a “coronet”, which is distinct for each species.

A shark.
