FAQ

Here are some of the questions that our customers most frequently have for us. 

What is Paint by Numbers?

Painting by Numbers is 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.

What is included in a Paint by Numbers kit

Each Paint by Numbers kit from our website is all inclusive! Included in each kit you will find a printed, pre-numbered canvas, all the paint necessary to complete the design (no mixing required) and paint brushes. All you need is warm water to wash the brushes when you change colors. 

What size are the paintings? 

Most of our paintings are 16"x20" (40x50cm) and do not include a frame. A few of our paintings are different sizes, but it will show the size when you add the product to your cart. 

About size error

Due to equipment and process problems, errors may occur when the canvas is printed and replaced. Manual measurement will have an error of 1-3cm.

How many paint colors are included in each kit?

Our Paint by Numbers kits includes between 20-32 paint pots depending on the picture. We always provide enough paints to achieve the authenticity and details of the painting. 

I am not an artist, do I need to know how to blend colors or mix colors to complete a Paint by Numbers?

Absolutely not! Paint by Numbers kit is designed so that every color or every value of color is provided for you. No blending or mixing of colors is required. As an example when painting a sky, light to dark values of blue will be provided based on the artwork. 

How long does it take to complete a Paint by Numbers?

The length of time it takes to complete a Paint by Numbers will vary depending on the size of the artwork, and the hours of time applied to working on it. Paint by Numbers is a relaxing art form that can be completed quickly over a couple of days or enjoyed a little at a time over a series of weeks/months. It is totally up to each individual.

How long does it take for a Paint by Numbers to dry?

Because the paint is water-based acrylic paint, it will dry to the touch within 10-15 minutes depending on the thickness of the paint application.

How shall I clean my paintbrushes?

Rinse the paint-filled brush well in a brush basin or container of water. If needed, you can add a touch of mild soap to thoroughly clean paint from the bristles. Reshape the brush and allow it to dry between uses. NEVER let a brush sit in a container of water or rest on its bristles.

What should I do with my completed Paint by Numbers artwork?

A completed Paint by Numbers project is a work of art and will be enjoyed for years to come. Remembering the hours of relaxing pleasure is only one way to enjoy your artwork.

Placing it in a frame for display is another! When framing, it is not necessary to frame with glass, however, when framing with glass be sure to use a matte so that the artwork is not directly touching the glass.

About product creases

 In order to protect the goods from being damaged during transportation, we will fold the canvas and wrap it up. The canvas is made of cotton and linen, so creases are normal. But don't worry, the slight creases will not be seen after the painting is done.


 Here are some ways to reduce creases: You can spread the canvas and place a heavy object on it to reduce creases. If it cannot be flattened, you can try ironing or steaming the canvas. 

If the crease you received is serious and cannot be used, please contact us, we will reissue a new package for you

 About the size of the product frame


 The frame is wrapped by the canvas, so the size of the canvas refers to the size of the outside of the frame. Therefore, you need to measure it from the outermost sides of the four sides of the frame when you want to get the size of the frame.


 The measurement of the size of our products is based on the outside of the frame. as the picture shows:
