Hello everyone! My latest UnicornPostbox blog post is progression photos of a Christmas Robin pub painting…hope you like! 😀

We started off with blue and white acrylic paint, lightly brushing blue at the top and fading into the white at the bottom. We then incorporated white snowflakes onto the blue background. The brown twig was given 3D depth with white highlights. We started off with a kind of oval shape to silhouette the robin. We painted dark green ivy with scarlet berries, and of course Reni the robin had a bright red breast, textured feathers, beady eyes, three toed feet and a black beak 🐦 And here is the finished painting…

I am actually really pleased with this one, it’s really festive and Christmas-sy 🎄 (I adore Christmas) Unfortunately there will be no more pub painting until April next year 😢 My art teacher and her partner are teaching art on a world cruise ship! How amazing is that?! What an opportunity! All the best to them, and see them in the spring 💕

My next UnicornPostbox blog post will probably be of ‘Leonardo the lion’ diamond art 🎨 💎 But I am also going to a few Christmas pantomimes so expect some theatre reviews in the not so distant future 🙂

Thank you as ever for taking the time to read/view… all the best, Lauren xx

Hi everyone! My latest blog post is progression photos of a mama and baby elephant diamond art… hope you enjoy! 😄

This diamond art took me a few weeks to complete. They are very time-consuming, all the individual beads to stick, however it is so therapeutic. Put some music on, and I’m in my element. I have purchased a new diamond art of a magical, colourful ‘tree of life’, so that’ll be fun to get going! 😀

And here is the finished piece! 🐘🐘

Thank you as always for taking the time to read/view! 💕💕

Now we’re in summer, expect some more upcycled furniture for the Children’s Air Ambulance store! I’ve got a new pub painting at the beginning of August too..so watch this space 😜😜

Much love, Lauren xx
