IF-Idle the Sloth

I thought of so many things when I saw the word for Illustration Friday was Idle. I thought of an idle car, a person lounging on the beach, "idle hands are the devil's playground" and others. But then I really wanted to have something that I could possibly put in my children's illustration portfolio. Then I remembered the sloth, a mammal so idle that vines actually start to grow around this creature. I looked up baby sloth, on google of course, and found the most adorable video! From that I made this illustration and created the vines around it for flair. Let me know what you think. Hope you had a productive week! -Julie

IF- Pretend

Okay, so let's "pretend" they are not monsters of the trees. They don't await an unsuspecting human to walk under their perch and then "BAM!" throw all bits of natures ammo at you. Anything from helicopter pods, walnuts, and, my favorite, digested gumball nuts. Be fooled by their sweet faces. Ignore plight in life to overtake your backyards.
But as stated in the beginning we ARE pretending. So gaze on their cute faces and their adorable scurrying. Say it with me... "AWWWWWWE"
