Supplies for this Easy Sloth Painting
Directions for Sloth Art Tutorial
- Start by painting the background. I like to apply the paint directly to the wood slice and then use a flat flash to blend the paint colors. I don’t worry about the blending being perfect.
- Let the background dry completely. This should only take a few minutes as acrylic paint dries quickly as long as you don’t put too much on. Once dry, paint the tree branch with several smaller branches coming off.
- Next add a variety of leaves to the tree branch. I like to use several different colors of green.
- For the flowers don’t worry about a clean design. Make a variety of half circles with different shades of orange to create a flower design.
- Lightly outline the sloth design with a pencil and then paint it.
- Add the sloth details for the claws and the face using a small paint brush.
- To paint the clouds start with white and then an additional color like pink or blue.
- As a finishing touch, add stars and a moon.
