First attempt at creating a distressed effect on wood but I think this little sardine looks at home on it 😀 🐟 Made out of an offcut from my studio that's gradually being finished ♻️🪵

My studio now has windows and a door ❤️ I'm so happy that I can use it properly now 😀 It is far from complete but I've set up a camp table in there and stolen a kitchen chair & have already done a few paintings 🖼 👩🏼‍🎨

I'm very excited that Fizz will be released into my garden tonight 🦔❤️😁 I was sent a message earlier to let me know that she now weighs enough to go out into the wild! Rescued as she was abandoned due to this summer being too hot for hedgehogs to find the food they need, as the ground is so hard 😥
