Mama & Baby Hedgehogs
Hello Friends,
Yesterday I took a lot longer to do this little sketch than I had planned to, and my arm was sore, but I like the way it turned out. A little brighter than I wanted, but I think the gold watercolor pencil is brighter than I think until I’ve already used it. Ha, ha! 😉
Hedgehogs normally have those little white tips at the end of their fur, too, but that was difficult to portray without tracing the photo. What I like about this one is the way the mama is lying on her side looking at her baby. I used to do that when my babies were lying on the floor!
Sometimes I really miss those early childhood days with my kids, but we are all in such a great stage of grown-up life together now, that making memories NOW is all that matters! Just getting the privilege to be my kids’ mom has been awesome!
Have a wonderful day, and give someone you love a big hug! 🙂

The hedgehogs are adorable and I know what you mean. I often remark that I’m so lucky to have the children I do and get to be their mom.

Thank you very much. I think one of my greatest accomplishments has been sending two great young people out into the world who have a great deal to offer. 😁
