I started this project around two years ago. Unfinished photo was where I had to stop when I severely injured my hand. 5 surgeries and 20 months later I tried to finish it but all the colors were dried out.
I contacted this wonderful company and they were able to pull up the order and send me a complete color set which arrived almost a week ahead of the scheduled delivery date. My goal was to be done before Halloween. The finished picture is from yesterday.
I can’t thank you enough. I thought I had a ruined project, I now have something to hang.

The container was open when I received it. The paint is completely dried up. I low have to go to my local craft store and try to find a close replacement
I was pleased with the end result. A few of the paints streaked and needed an additional coat. This seems to be a common problem with all PBN kits. I appreciated the reference sheet. It was very helpful with all the Browns in this one
The only complaint I have is about the paint. I wondered if you have added a gel thinner to your paints? It seems like some are so thin that they don’t cover the numbers or lines well, even using the cover stick. I had to go over several of the areas at least twice to cover the area well.
This was three of three 60 x 75 cm 48 color HY 8020 6075 48 SE. This was a challenge as long skinny lines to paint. I needed to thin the number 6 color to finish that number. The creases in the canvas never went away.
I am looking for my next project
It seemed a bit overwhelming at first, but ended up being manageable. I’ve been an artist for decades, but never thought I’d try “paint by numbers”. It was fun and the fact that it was from an actual favorite picture made it a special gift for my wife.
This was stressful with all the lines and my hands shake sometimes lol...but I made it through it!
The picture does not do justice as looks lighter than actually is.
I love this painting and I would really love to get another one and the same size but I don’t see the option on your website. I would love to collaborate with your company as a content creator but it’s is expensive Thanks
Paint by Numbers for Adults – Relax, Focus & Craft Your Own Masterpiece
Art-based relaxation has moved out of the therapist’s office and into living rooms worldwide — and
paint by numbers for adults is its most accessible form. When you zero in on filling a clearly outlined shape with colour,
your brain shifts from high-alert beta waves to calming alpha waves within minutes.
Heart rate steadies, breathing deepens, and the endless to-do list fades into the background.
Because every pigment is pre-mixed and every cell is numbered, there’s zero performance pressure — you literally can’t “get it wrong”.
That certainty lets your mind wander just enough to trigger dopamine micro-hits each time a section is completed.
Think of the process as guided mindfulness with a keepsake: by the final brushstroke you’ve practised deep focus,
lowered stress hormones and created wall-worthy art you’ll proudly display or gift.
Every diy-paintbynumbers.com kit ships with a premium 280 gsm cotton canvas that prevents bleed-through,
pre-mixed acrylics in airtight pots so there’s absolutely no guesswork,
and three pro-grade round brushes that glide from hair-thin details to broad sky washes.
With a catalogue of over 3 000 motifs — from soothing
landscapes and playful
animals to daring
abstract art — you’ll always find a design that speaks to you and your décor.

Not at all. Every cell is labelled with a number that matches exactly one paint pot,
so the path is mapped out before you start. Many first-time customers tell us they
“upgraded” from colouring books and felt immediate success because there is no fear of blank canvas.
If you can hold a pen, you can follow our template – and our illustrated guide explains
brush cleaning, best lighting and drying tips in plain English.
How many hours will one canvas take?
• 8 × 10 in / 20 × 25 cm: 4–6 hours
• 16 × 20 in / 40 × 50 cm: 10–14 hours
• XL or high-detail formats: up to 20 hours
Splitting the project into 30-minute “micro-retreats” keeps your neck and shoulders relaxed
and lets acrylic layers cure properly for richer colour.
Are your acrylics non-toxic?
Yes. Our colours are water-based, low-odour and fully EN 71-3 certified,
so they’re free of heavy metals and phthalates. Ventilation is optional; a dining-room table setup is perfectly safe.
Brushes rinse clean with lukewarm water and a drop of mild soap.
Can I reorder missing colours?
Absolutely. Keep the pot numbers on the lids and request a refill via our
contact form; we ship replacements free within Germany
and at postage cost elsewhere in the EU. Pro tip: cover pots with cling film during breaks to prevent drying out.
Best way to protect the finished artwork?
Lightly brush on our clear acrylic varnish once the paint is fully dry (about 24 h).
It cures to a subtle satin sheen that boosts colour vibrancy and shields against dust and UV fade.
After 30 minutes you can frame, stretch or gift the piece.

What if I make a mistake while painting?
Let the area dry, then apply a new layer of the correct colour. Our pigments are opaque enough to cover stray strokes completely.
For major slip-ups, a touch of white primer resets the spot in seconds.
Will the numbers show through lighter colours?
We print numerals in a low-contrast grey, and the paint is formulated for one-coat coverage.
If you’re using very light pastels, a quick second pass ensures the numerals disappear entirely.
What frame size do I need?
All canvases follow standard photo ratios. A 16 × 20 in painting fits any off-the-shelf frame of the same size,
or you can opt for our DIY stretcher bars for a gallery-wrap look without glass.
