Ink Zentangle Sloth – Faerie Bear Art
An ink illustration of a sloth facing the 4th wall while hanging from their hands on a not-drawn branch or pole while their chubby legs dangle below them. Text on their tummy reads, "Slowing down is strength, too. Take rest. Hold space. Flap it out. You deserve your love." There are also several watermarks on the last photo linking people to other Faerie Bear Art platforms.

About the Art

This sloth resonates deeply with me as a chronically ill autistic person. I need the reminder – and maybe you do, too? – that slowing down is good.  It’s not strength to push through and hurt ourselves or exhaust ourselves.  Sloths are the queens of Slowing Down and I need more sloth energy in my life, including taking things at my own pace, enjoying my round tummy, and doing things for fun.
