Paint By Numbers
Do you have a fear of blank canvas and find it difficult to decide where to start or what to paint?
Or, are you new to art but want to experience the benefits of practising art?
Good news, I have something that may interest you!
I am talking about my latest art project which is a Paint By Numbers kit by the brand Craft-Ease.
Having painted it myself, I thought about sharing my experience with the arty world.

What’s in the Kit
- Acrylic Colours
- Stretched Canvas
- Brush Set
- Photo of the Painting
The kit comes with a numbered canvas, set of all colours which are also numbered and some brushes (links below). All you have to do is to fill in the canvas area with corresponding paint and just enjoy the painting experience. As simple as that!
It’s a complete kit that you can take outdoors or paint indoors at your leisure. You don’t need anything else like a paint mixing plate or water – a mess free painting experience! There are enough paints, you can even save some for future use.
My Painting Experience
I love painting outdoors. This painting kit has travelled to several different scenic locations over the weekends where I enjoyed painting it. Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, our weekend getaways have reduced but painting it indoors has helped me keep myself busy during these uncertain situations. I never got bored sitting at home!
Some points to note while painting it:
- Always paint in a position that is comfortable for long sitting and supports your back.
- It dries super quick, so make sure to correct any mistakes immediately.
- It’s best to paint dark shades first to avoid light ones getting dirty.
- Clean your brushes after every session or the paint would dry on them.
Benefits of Paint By Numbers Project
Lets you forget your worries for some time
You do not have to worry about what to paint, which colours to choose, and you are aware that the end result is going to be good. Painting with such awareness is really calming and helps you immerse yourself completely in the process of creation.
Helps improve concentration
The painting comprises of many small numbered blocks that have to be painted with full concentration. The step by step process of painting by numbers helps build your attention span and improves attention to details.
You Become An Artist
For people who are new to art, the end result is quite elaborate which boosts one’s confidence to pursue more artistic activities. The painting looks grand and can be used for home décor.
You help an artist
These paintings are work of independent artists who collaborate with CraftEase and get paid for their beautiful work! Each order helps an artist pursue his/ her dream.
