Description: I think that is all the fun we will have today with the lessons for kids, or at least for now. I wanted to get some other stuff uploaded like this mandarin fish. Up next, we will tackle the task of learning "how to draw a mandarin fish", step by step. These beautiful looking fish species come in green, blue and orange. The one in the lesson is colored using all three shades, but then again that is how they are normally. If you are interested in owning a mandarin, you should at least have a thirty gallon fish tank to give them adequate amount of space. They also need to have live rocks, sand, and a good amount of fun spots that they can hide in like caves and other aquatic toys. Anyways, drawing a mandarin shouldn't be too difficult, but if you are a novice artist it might be a little complicated but not much. Well, that's it. Have fun people and like always, leave some feedback.
