Sloth Wearing a Graduation Cap Coloring Page

Hard edges meet soft ones on this page. The board of the cap is flat and square, drawn in perspective so each of its four corners points off in a different direction, and under it sits a rounded crown that follows the curve of the skull. From the corner on the right a cord loops down to a small ring, passes through a short plain collar, and breaks into a fringe of loose strands that hang free in the open paper beside the face.

The head is framed by a ruff of short fur ticks running all the way around from one side to the other. A gray mask sweeps from each eye out toward the ear, and the eyes themselves are large and round with a solid pupil and a white catchlight. The nose is an oval with a heavy outline, a pale interior and two solid nostrils hanging from its upper rim.

Everything from the shoulders down is plain. No fur lines cross the chest or the arms, and both front paws rest below the belly with three claws drawn into each of them. The two back feet are wide and flat, each tapering to a point at the outer end, so the lower half of the sheet is mostly broad empty shape, and nothing has been drawn on the paper behind the animal.
