Outline the Eyes
First, draw two large ovals to outline the frog’s eyes.

Draw the Mouth

Outline the Tongue
Add a bumpy line to form the frog’s tongue.
Draw a Bowtie
Draw a cute little bowtie for the frog to wear.
Attach the Front Legs
Attach the frog’s curving front legs. Then, form the shape of its webbed feet.
Add the Hind Legs
Add the frog’s folded hind legs and draw its webbed feet.
Outline the Belly
Draw a curved line to form the frog’s belly.
Draw a Top Hat
Draw the oval-shaped base of the top hat sitting on the frog’s head. Next, form the cylindrical body of the hat. Then, add the horizontal band along the body of the hat.
Color the Eyes and Mouth
Fill in the irises of the frog’s eyes with yellow. Next, color its pupils with black and add the white shimmer. Now, use shades of red to color the frog’s mouth and tongue.
Shade the Body

Add Blush
Use a vibrant shade of red to color the frog’s rosy cheeks.
Shade the Hat and Bowtie
Use a dark shade of gray to fill in the top hat. Then, color the bowtie and the band on its top hat with blue.
