Of all the animals that can make ‘ugly’ cute, the sloth is among the top. They are so unreal, with their pig-noses, freakish talons and huge eyes – I love them so! So, when I was commissioned to create a little drawing of a girl with her pets (one real, one imaginary), you can imagine how thrilled I was!
I chose to add the impression of a border by cutting out the drawing and mounting it on similarly-weighted paper, and really like the results. I’ll probably be doing this more often.
Okay, now, purely for your viewing pleasure:
Happy Monday!
OMG!!!!! I am overwhelmed by the cuteness!!!!!!!!!!! I want to hold it and squeeze it!!!!! Love the art too Stasia~xoxo
Oh yes, is this piece on your Etsy? I must have it!!!!!!
Thanks, Katy! Haha, it’s on the etsy, but it’s a custom piece, so it’s reserved. I wish I could keep it, too! I see more cutely-drawn sloths in the future, though!!
Super kawaii! I never would have thought about looking for baby sloth pix, but you’re right… they are adorable. I like the paper-on-paper effect, too.
Thank you!
I always forget how cute just about anything can be until I look at them again. Sloths always get me, though.
Oooo I love sloths too!! What a great custom job to get
And the cut out effect is fantastic.
I have two pups. I want a sloth too!
This is too cute. I love the green gradient border especially, and the layered paper effect!
I like the new layering effect too!..especially since you cut the border so nicely.
Baby sloths ARE cute!!! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! It was an experiment that I’ll probably be repeating!
