Tips
- Color the mouth red and the pupils black, and the rest green, and add eyebrows stretching out from the frog for a cartoon look.
- An inexpensive, smudge-free sketching technique is to use a thin crayon pencil instead of a special pencil.
- Experiment with different pupil shapes and placements.
