Hi 👋 My latest UnicornPostbox blog post is progression photos of an amateur Easter inspired hedgehog pub painting…hope you like!

First of all, we painted a beige peach sort of shape in the middle of the horizontal canvas, adding little beige ears. The painting then resembled a lion cub, I thought, as we incorporated the brown spikes; like a mane. Using our small brush, we created white acrylic highlights and gave a lighter, creamy texture to certain parts of the face. Easter yellow, purple and blue pastel spikes really jazzed it up, as well as cute thickly painted flowers and abstract splodges, literally flicked onto the canvas. This step is always so much fun! I gave Harriet white whiskers, a lighter shade of brown defined her ears – also black features, such as a cute button nose and cheerful smile, made her especially elegant… This was a lovely project, although she’s amateur, I still think she’s rather adorable 🥰🥰 The pub painting classes are always so enjoyable, with cheesy music, a glass or two, joy and laughter all round 😃 And here is my finished artwork:

For my next blog posts in the next month or so, expect diamond arts 💎 🎨 , a travel blog, and theatre review for sure 🥰

Thank you as ever for taking the time to view/read. Much love, and happy Easter, Lauren xx
