Event Description:

Join Toni from Easely Does It for a relaxed, family-friendly acrylic painting session packed with humour, colour, and expressive fun.

In this lively, step-by-step workshop, children and adults will paint Drama Llama — a bold, expressive llama full of attitude and flair. Expect exaggerated features, playful poses, and plenty of freedom to add personality, patterns, and colour. The session is joyful, silly, and perfect for painters of all abilities.

Working on a 20 × 30cm stretched canvas, families will explore how to:

✨ Paint a llama using simple shapes and confident brushstrokes

✨ Create expressive faces and dramatic poses

✨ Use bright colours and patterns to add personality

✨ Add fun details, backgrounds, and finishing touches

No painting experience is needed — Toni will guide everyone through each stage with encouragement and easy-to-follow tips, helping both grown-ups and young artists feel confident and proud of their wonderfully dramatic creations. 🎨🦙

All materials are included — just bring your imagination and a sense of fun.

🏰 About Hughenden & The National Trust

Your workshop takes place at the historic Hughenden Estate, once home to Victorian Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli and later a secret WWII map-making base.

Set among rolling countryside and woodland, Hughenden offers a brilliant contrast to this bold, character-filled painting session — a lovely place to create, laugh, and enjoy family time together. 🌳✨
