Learn More About The Blobfish Drawing

Blobfish became popular on social media as the 'ugliest fish in the world.' You can add a blobfish drawing to your feed thanks to this easy, step-by-step cartoon animal drawing guide.

The blobfish looks disturbingly human, with two eyes above a protruding nose and a frowning, thick-lipped mouth.

But the blobfish has a secret - it only becomes ugly when humans bring it to the ocean's surface. It usually looks more like this salmon drawing or like a spiky stone fish. Why does it change?

Scroll down for a downloadable PDF of this tutorial.

The blobfish lives at the bottom of the ocean where the pressure from the water above is immense.

Its bones, muscles, and skin are designed to withstand that pressure, but when it is dragged to the surface where there is less pressure, it collapses into a blob.

Animals living in the ocean depths are often strange and wonderful in appearance.

Check out this anglerfish drawing to meet another unusual deep-sea fish. You can even draw a giant squid, a creature that travels between the surface and the deep.
