Animals in Flowers - Spirits of the Wildlife - Sloth #1

 I thought this sloth was so cute,

plus I just love sloths.

This is in a coloring book that's part of a series of animals in flowers.

I decided to color the sloth in a light brown 

with shadings of darker browns & greens.  

After a quick research online, 

the green is due to algae that grows on their fur.

The algae is a camouflage,

as well as nutrition, because of its protein & calories,

that the sloth licks off of its body.

How interesting!

These animals in flowers are a little harder to color

because they're partly drawn with the assistance of AI.

With AI, you literally have to figure out what is what - if anything!

Sometimes just coloring something provides a sort of 'mask'.

I did this using greens in unidentifiable areas.

I chose quite a lot of colors for this one.

Here is what I used:

In these animals in flowers coloring books,

there's a quote on the page next to the animal.

Thanks so much for viewing my coloring.

Have a blessed week!
