Shark Color Palette: What colors should I use?
When coloring a shark coloring page, consider using a variety of shades to create a dynamic and striking appearance. Start with a deep ocean blue for the body, reminiscent of the ocean depths, and combine it with charcoal gray for the dorsal fin and tail. For the underbelly, a lighter shade like seafoam green can provide a nice contrast. To add some vibrancy, you might use coral pink for any accents, like the mouth or gills. Finally, a touch of bright yellow could highlight areas in the background, suggesting sunlight filtering through water.

Environment: Think about the habitat where the shark is located. If it's in the ocean, use varying shades of blue and green to depict the water, along with details like coral reefs, schools of fish, or sunlight filtering through the surface.
