Coloring tips for this sloth page

Use coloring pencils on the sloth’s fur to build soft texture with short strokes that follow the curve of the body.
Keep the branch a darker brown than the sloth so the hanging pose stands out clearly.
Try two greens on the leaves and vines, such as sage and olive, to separate the layers without making the sloth page feel crowded.
Add a light cream tone around the sloth’s face to make the eyes, nose, and smile easier to see.
If you use markers on the leaves, let them dry before working near the sloth’s claws and fur details.
