A mum has been keeping creative in lockdown painting a mural on her daughter's bedroom walls.
But Becky Thomas, of Wrotham Road, Gravesend – who painted the flower-themed masterpiece for her three-year-old daughter, Lily Wheeler – also captured her work in a timelapse video.

The graphic designer and illustrator said: "I'm currently furloughed and wanted to keep up my creativity while being stuck at home.
"We are currently living in a flat with no garden so I wanted to bring a bit of the outside in to brighten up her space."
It took Becky around two weeks to paint, and consists of lots of flowers – including peonies – bees and butterflies.
She used wall paint, paint pens and finished it off with gold leaf for the detailing.
