Why a Paint Kit?

  • Build Art Confidence: Shed the intimidation of the blank canvas, and find inspiration in classic works of art that you can tailor to reflect your unique style.
  • Relaxing Meditation: Painting is an experience of guided meditation that unlocks the sleeping artist in everyone.  
  • Supports Individualism: Paint by Numbers kits also enhance your creativity. You can choose the colors you want to use. While guided, you can still explore different brush techniques and color variations within the provided structure, such as blending and texturing, to really make the artwork in your own voice.

Tips for Beginners

  • Start by laying the canvas flat on a secure table.
  • Always layer from light to dark colors so you can easily cover small mistakes.
  • Paint one solid number group at a time, allowing the paint to dry before moving to an adjacent section.

Why Buy a Frame?

  • Better Painting Surface: Painting on a stretched, framed canvas provides tension. [Place canvas before painting.] It stops the canvas from sliding around on a table and ensures the paint applies smoothly, making it easier to stay inside the tiny, numbered lines.
  • Enhanced Presentation: Adding a frame gives the finished piece a professional, polished look, allowing you to proudly hang your art anywhere in your home.
  • Art Protection: Framing your canvas protects the finished painting from dust, moisture, and accidental tearing over time, ensuring your hard work lasts.

Does Size Matter?

Yes, size matters significantly when choosing a paint by numbers kit. It directly affects the level of detail, the time it takes to complete, and the difficulty of the project.

  • Small (under 16" x 20" / 40 x 40 cm): Less surface area means not as precise definition. Finished artwork will be lovely and impressionistic. Great for beginners or quick weekend projects. Less intimidating and easier to finish. Neat fit onto walls or desks that do not have a lot of space (also shelves, doors, etc.). Easier to box and ship the finished painting as a gift.
  • Medium (16" x 20" / 40 x 50 cm): Considered the industry standard. It takes several hours to weeks to complete, depending on your pace. Offers a solid balance in amount of detail. Lines are sharper and more intricate. Sweeping lines, and natural fit for placing decor on wall spaces.
  • Large (20" x 24" / 50 x 60 cm and up): High definition and crisp detail, ideal for complex landscapes or portraits. Requires patience, as the painting features a massive number of tiny cells. The final piece looks like a stunning, high-quality painting.
