WHAT IS PAINT BY NUMBERS?
It’s a system where a picture is divided into shapes, each marked with a number that corresponds to a particular color.
You paint in each shape and ultimately the picture emerges as a finished painting.

My favorite painting so far. Love the colors, so vibrant and beautiful.
Allie Torongeau –
This piece is very detailed and ethereal, like a scene from Middle Earth. Get lots of compliments on it and the customer service here is unparalleled! Thanks!
Eileen Slak –
This paint by number is extremely challenging as most of the spaces and numbers are very small. The results are well worth it.
crissy miller –
Not only did I have fun doing it, but it’s absolutely beautiful hanging up
Leah Araujo –
This is the first painting I bought and so far I love it! It’s very relaxing and helps me unwind after a long day at work. I will definitely be purchasing more!
Fiona Geldbaugh –
Love it!! But the paint coverage was not great and the colour was totally not like the picture! The picture was a gorgeous purple but the painting was more pink! Still enjoyed painting it though!
Pamela Knox –
I love the colors in this painting and it will be wonderful in my dining room when I finally finish it. So many little sections. I recommend good brushes.
Michelle –
This is definitely a detailed painting and takes some time but I could barely put it down! And it came out beautiful!
Phyllis Strohmeyer –
I look forward to working on this painting. Almost done!
Barbara Sacher –
My partner bought this for me a year ago. She noticed I was interested because a friend was doing a paint by numbers.
Finally I started it and was hooked. Started around 9pm and looked up and it was 1am. Very addicting, but in a good way. Peaceful, calming and interesting. And yes, the tiny numbers are a challenge even with a magnifying glass.
Even after a year, only 1 of the paints were too thick and after mixing it, it was fine.
I did run out of one of the colors, it’s the color that uses the most paint. Today, I contacted the company by email asking if I
could get another container of that color from them. Anxiously awaiting their reply, because I am done after that.
I am now looking for another painting to do. And curious about the one’s you can send in a photo.
Stephanie –
I love the vibrant colors in this one! I’d definitely recommend!
Maegan Gregory –
So fun to do! Highly recommended pattern!
Alma Sage –
I am still working on it. My hands don’t go as fast as they used to. Every stroke reviles another mystery about this guy.
Thomas Sommerville –
Very beautiful picture. Lighthouse stands out.
Vandna Gill-Katyal –
The painting is really nice but unfortunately I couldn’t finish because my number 3 paint dried out. So now i have a incomplete painting 🙁
Cherie Kammers –
I really enjoyed painting this pic
Mary Agrusa –
I love this kit. This is my first attempt to paint people using acrylics and I am thrilled with the results. I will still tweak it a bit, but for the most part it is finished. I ready for another!
Kyle McGary –
I really loved doing this painting as I really like wolves. The painting was relatively easy to do and one I would recommend to anyone.
Mary Fulton –
Unable to try the subject. Just too sick
Graham Payne –
My first picture, Peninsular of Parrots, now finished and my husband has framed it for me and is hanging in my study. A great satisfaction! Now onto the next one!
Jacalyn Stanley –
I was so excited to receive this canvas and get started. It’s my first experience with this type of kit so needed to get suggestions from the company regarding how to get the wrinkles out before starting. The company support responses were prompt and helpful. I followed the suggestion regarding purchasing a frame and dealing with the wrinkles. However, I tried several times to stretch the canvas for a tight fit but could not get it to fit without a few gathers along the sides. After many unsuccessful attempts I had to resort to calling Hobby Lobby who can stretch it for me but at a cost of $80 (since it is a rather large piece) and it won’t be ready for 2 weeks. So disappointed that I have to wait now and also incur the expense of the canvas stretching. Possibly my expectations were a little high since I assumed the “kit” would be inclusive. Had I known this in advance I would have started with a smaller piece for my first try. I love the design and am just hopeful that it will be worth the wait and the extra expense.
Leanne Crowley –
I have found the B E S T Hobby! I love this concept. Very clever and rewarding. I give my paintings as loved gifts to my family & friends and look forward to picking up my brush. They are puzzles and paintings with a wonderful result. My tip with some thick paint colours is to add a little water. I worked this out after I struggled a little with my first one. Perhaps some instructions would be helpful
Rose DiCanio Reckas –
Loved it!!! My first and there’s will be another!!
Louise –
This turned out very nice. love the colors.
Christine Wilson –

Carina Santos –
it was my first PBN! lots of small places, BUT SO MUCH FUN! THANK YOU!
Amber Melahn –
Very time consuming some sections are no bigger than my pinky nail but it is relaxing. The paints are a bit lumpy I just mixed in some water to smooth it out.
Margaret Matthews –
I just love the quality. I need to try to stretch it onto a cardboard or wood, however.
HAPPY –
Customer service was great and the painting was amazing!!
Had a picture of my grandmother made for my mom who absolutely loves to paint by numbers. Her reaction to finding out it was my grandmother was priceless!! Priceless!!
Completly satisfied with the services and painting.
Renata Diniz –
This painting is gorgeous but different from all the others I bought before, this one had the drawing printed in red and not in black. Also, one of the paints was quite liquid so more than one coat was necessary to cover the red numbers. Other than that, great painting!
Kelly R –
I loved the vibrant colors in this picture! It was easy to do and great for anxiety. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that a few of the colors did not cover well. They were very thin and and even after 2-3 coats they still wouldn’t cover the lines and numbers.
michelle naughton –
An enjoyable experience completing this painting. It was very satisfying seeing the painting come to life.
lin ainscough –
Great quality pic my daughter loved doing this. Will be buying another. Brilliant…..
Cheryl Evans –

Jane Jackson –
It was really fun to paint!
Dawn Wiesner –
The quality of the canvas and the imprinting is not what I was excepting. I think sanding the canvas is going to ruin the imprinting. The 2 I had made are for gifts. I will let you know what the recipients say.
mavis nayda a very detailed painting really satisfying to work on,really pleased –

Tracy –
I absolutely loved doing this painting. It guided you to make it exactly as pictured, but it provided enough paint to be able to add your own twist to the painting. I loved how it was delivered and packaged. The ease of knowing what to do even for the unexperienced painters. I will be ordering another one soon!
Lee Trueblood –
The last paint by numbers I completed was about 6 years ago. My, times they are a changing. The last one was an 8 x 10 with about 10 colors. The 16 x 20 with 21 paints was fantastic. I was able to unwind and forget about life. I got so interested and curious regarding the finished painting that I found myself working on it about 5 times everyday.
Turned out really well. Very proud of the finished pic.
Jen –
I love that it’s canvas. I was a little concerned about the small detail at first but I’m really enjoying it. I work at it a little at a time but I find it a good stress releiver.
Daphne Gutierrez –
The canvas and paints were fine. But, there was no paper “key” – this makes it difficult later on to go back and fill in holes and make touch-ups – the numbers have disappeared. Luckily, at the start, I took 9 photos of different segments of the canvas to have a way to work around this issue. But the key would have been much better and not too expensive!
My greatest complaint is that you are showing a photograph of a still life. This is not the same as the painting that will come from this kit. Why do you not post on your website an actual finished version of the painting? In my case, there is no handle on the white vase. The vase looks a lot different (not shiny) from the photo on your site. The fruits (apples and pears) are not as lifelike as the photo. (Oddly, the photo posted by another reviewer does have a handle on the vase and the coloration on the vase is different!) I’m not saying that my finished painting is not pleasant, but you are not showing a representative picture of what we are buying, and I think that is very wrong.
Mike Pringle –
The illustration page was smaller print than the painting. It was very hard to read the numbers. Other than that it was very nice.
jerome walker –
have not finished
Linda Hurst –
I have only finished one of them and i’m pleased with it. I’m still working on the others and am a little concerned with the colors. I have learned that you really can’t tell for sure until you’re finished. I really wish they would put more numbers on them. I have found it difficult to tell what color to use when there is only 1 number for a large winding area. Also the very light (pink) lines are difficult to see.
Overall, I am pleased so far.
Kimberley Williams –
Honestly I was unsure when I unpacked it and looked at the canvas but the result was amazing.
I cant wait for my Dad to receive it.
Serpil Erdogan –
I loved painting my eagle. It was very relaxing. I have become addicted to paint by number. I have started my 4th picture and still have another 2 on the wag which I ordered.
Patti DiLouie –
This painting is much prettier than the photo here. The colors are vibrant, we love it. It’s a little challenging but a beginner could do. It’s a keeper !
Rebecca B –
This painting is so amazing. My husband loves to paint and when he finished this painting it looked like the eagle just “popped” off the page. Such a great paint by numbers kit. I think we will be ordering more in the future.
Becky –
I was concerned about this one because it’s more photo-quality. Did not disappoint. Love it!

Barbara Long –
Wonderful idea!
SLWW –
I haven’t started painting this yet, but I felt that I got a good price for a picture that I liked. I had looked online & in the store & none of them had pictures that I would hang in my house. So, hopefully this one will turn out well. The only thing that surprised me was that the canvas was rolled up & there was no backing. I am not sure what you are supposed to use in order to support it while you are painting.
Michelle McLachlan –
this one is Beautiufl!! looks professional and is framed. no one would know it was a number painting!!!!!! it did come very creased, but a steam iron took care of that.
Kathleen Garcia –
Great fun! Very relaxing. I was very happy with my purchase.
Edna Cerna –
Some of the colors are gray and not yellow like the picture. Other than that it’s really pretty once it’s done
Jeffrey Ellmann –
Setup and paint were spot on. Thank You!
Brittany –
I absolutely loved my painting kit. It was very easy to follow along and paint by the Numbers. It came with everything I needed. It was very therapeutic and fun.
Amanda Pratt –
Was totally awesome. The first paint-by-number I had done in years. When I was done it made me think of a digital photo or the view from a glass-bottomed boat.
Karen Pizarek –
I will say. It was fun to do and it turned out a 10. You would never know it a paint by number. I have had a lot of complements on it. I would buy another one!

This was my third paint by numbers and I had so much fun with this one as I did with my first. Although it took some time to reach me, it was worth the wait!

I loved doing this Paint by numbers. There are smaller bits to fill in, but the overall image is just wonderful. I would recommend this one to everyone
Robert Robinson –
Not finished yet
Mary Silva –
I was glad to have tried Painting but Numbers. It was worth it since I love to paint. I was kind of sad to finish it so I ordered another one. A great hobby!
CHRistie Lewis –
I spent many days tinkering with this painting and painted up through color #10. Once I got nearly all of the blue background painted, along with the complementary blues in the background, I realized that the colors in this painting wouldn’t look at all like the original. Not only that, the colors I am using don’t look good next to each other on the painting. If I spent the remaining time on this to paint the whole painting, I would not be satisfied with the end result and would NEVER want to display it. Very disappointing. Also, many of the numbers and lines show through the paint (and I was making it thicker there too). Just not anything I would ever frame or display. I took a great deal of time and detail to paint this up through paint color #10 and am really upset that I wasted that time. Also, I purchased 3 other paintings and I don’t even want to try them because they are probably the same – the colors won’t look like the picture, the number will show through the paint, and the colors I end up with won’t even complement each other or look like they were meant to go together.
Lu –
My painting is a work in progress, but I’m thoroughly enjoying seeing it come to fruition. I think my only negative would be how long it took to receive it, almost a month and a half. I would totally recommend to anyone looking to add something new to their day.
Virginia Hood –
I just started this week. The numbers are so small that I have to use a magnifying glass. But I am looking forward to seeing the finished product.
