The walls of the nursery, bathtub, doors can be decorated with images of fish, aquatic plants, marine animals. But here's how to draw a fish if a similar design idea came to mind? It is not necessary to make the drawing one hundred percent naturalistic. It is possible to use stylized images of fish.
We use children's drawings for design purposes
Making drawings is easy. First, you need to use pencil on paper to draw such pictures that will please both the baby and the artist-designer himself. Then you can cut them and paste on the wallpaper where appropriate. By the way, it is quite possible to involve the children themselves in the drawing process, as many kids can draw fish on the shoulder. But how nice it will be for little men to take part in the design of a nursery or a bathroom!
How to draw fish decoratively?
Decorative painting differs from natural painting in that the objects depicted look fabulous, they often have traits inherent in people: smiles, cool expressions of “faces”, freckles or eyelashes. Our fish will only be awarded a smile and chubby cheeks, the rest of it will be as close to reality as possible. Since it is impossible to draw fish similar to real, living kids, many details are still drawn schematically.

First, an oval is drawn on paper.
Then one end of the oval is slightly narrowed and sharpened - the tail will be located there.
From the opposite end of the tail on the oval draw a mouth with a smile that “ends” with chubby cheeks - they are represented using an arc.
Then you should draw eyes. They can be positioned both inside the oval-body and made prominent, like the eyes of an aquarium fish-telescope.
In eyeballs, smaller circles are placed, painted over in black - these are the pupils. It turns out very beautifully if the black pupils have small white circles - glare.
The tail and lower pectoral fins of a fish are best depicted using ovals. Moreover, the visible lower pectoral fin may end in an arc, similar to the one we used to represent the “cheeks” fish.
The upper fin can be drawn with an oval, or with a “fence” - it all depends on the desire and taste of the artist.
Shading should be applied to the fins and tail.
Now it is necessary to emphasize the gills in an arc, and “cover” the fish’s body with scales.
How to draw a goldfish with a pencil
The aquarium goldfish enjoys universal love . Children really like to draw it. Sometimes they give her a small crown, and it turns out the heroine of Pushkin's fairy tale - the Golden Fish, fulfilling wishes. You can draw a goldfish in the same way as a regular fish, but it should be noted that usually this species has a luxurious veil-like double tail. The eyes of a goldfish can also be located in the usual way, or be a little bulging. If a decision is made to portray a goldfish more believable, then it should be noted that it differs from other fish, such as a small "hump" at the top of the calf and a rather voluminous tummy. The line depicting the belly of a goldfish bends rather abruptly in the back half of the body.
