💚 Family Painting Session – “Tropical Frog”
Join Toni from Easely Does It for a relaxed, family-friendly acrylic painting session inspired by lush rainforests and vibrant tropical life.
A Creative Workshop Full of Colour, Energy & Tropical Magic
📅 Sunday 31st May
🕥 10:30 AM (please arrive at Visitor Reception by 10:00 AM) – 12:30 PM (approx.)
📍 National Trust Hughenden Estate, HP14 4LA
In this fun, step-by-step workshop, children and adults will paint Tropical Frog — a bright, cheerful frog perched among bold jungle leaves, glowing colours, and playful natural textures. The session is uplifting, creative, and perfect for painters of all abilities.
Working on a 20 × 30cm stretched canvas, families will explore how to:
✨ Use expressive brushstrokes to create leaf shapes and texture
✨ Paint frog features, patterns, and character
✨ Layer greens, yellows, and tropical colours for depth and vibrancy
✨ Add details like highlights, shadows, and jungle accents to make the scene pop
No painting experience is needed — Toni will guide everyone through each stage, offering encouragement and tips so both grown-ups and young artists can feel confident and proud of their finished artwork. 🎨🐸
All materials are included — just bring your imagination and a sense of fun.
