• Realistic Look: Use light grays, whites, and subtle browns for the narwhal's body, and ivory or creamy white for its tusk.
• Unicorn Magic: How about a pastel rainbow tusk? Or a narwhal with shimmering purple and blue scales?
• Background: Color the ocean water in shades of blue and green. Don't forget the bubbles – a very light blue or even white can make them pop!

Fun Facts
Did you know that the narwhal's long 'horn' is actually an elongated tooth, or tusk? It can grow up to 10 feet long! Male narwhals usually have one, but sometimes females do too, and very rarely, a narwhal might even have two tusks! Scientists believe they use their tusks to sense their surroundings, forage for food, and maybe even communicate with each other. Narwhals live in the cold Arctic waters, so they're excellent swimmers and can dive very deep. They are truly one of the most mysterious and wonderful animals in the ocean, a real-life sea unicorn!
