Story of a Bald Frog- sans illustrations

There once was a green frog named Joe.

Whose hair he just could not grow.

The situation did nothing but vex him,

Each time he saw his reflection

And soft breezes would blow.

Now, along comes a toad named Ned.

Quite ashamed of his shiny bald head.

He had tried every rub,

Every sprinkle and scrub-

Said to make one’s mane grow.

Well Joe saw Ned, and Ned saw Joe.

Then both of them said “Oh”.

They were quick to discover

From seeing each other

They both suffer the same woe.

So they set up a shop in Reeseda.

with a seamstress named Rita.

Now they sell hats and wigs

take custom made gigs.

And business hasn’t been too slow.

I started this for a pet project I am working on and thought maybe I could try it for a second stab at green.

I started out with colored pencils, but when I added marker to the face I got an painted texture. I am not very familiar with markers and I am trying to get used to them.
If you can spare a few tips to a green horn, please feel free to comment.
