Clownfish are easy to draw. The fish shape is like any other fish, it's the markings that make the clown fish beautiful. The color of orange is bright when it is in a blue background like the ocean. 

BASIC SHAPE
The back is a curved arch like a rainbow. The tail starts out like the letter"C," that gets connected to the body. The bottom line curves up from the tail and curves down to make the belly, ten slopes up to the jaw. 

FINS
The top has two thin long fins. The belly has two rounded fins. There is a side fin it starts like a "C" and has two lines going forward like a triangle.

STRIPES
There are three white stripes they have thick black edges. One stripe is like a collar around the head. There is one like a belt with a point going forward in the middle.  There is one at the base of the tail.

DETAILS
The fins have black edges, and lines that are the hair-thin bones. 

The eye is a little bulge so make a slight shadow around it. Leave a little white spot in the eye. 

COLOR
Color the fish light orange and use a darker orange for the shadows underneath. Leave the stripes white but put the black edges in the fins.
