DoMyArt Paint by Numbers Kit for Adults Beginners, DIY Acrylic Painting on Canvas Home Decor Wall Art (River Under Sunset, 16x20 Inch, No Frame)

I absolutely loved how this painting turned out! This was my first time creating artwork using a Paint by Numbers kit. The directions were clear and direct, plenty of paint all numbered corresponding the same numbers on the canvas, and paint brushes as well. I will definitely purchase another kit soon!

This picture was so much fun to paint. The colors are beautiful and the results are spectacular. The big downside, however, is the size of the canvas. The picture is the standard 16 x 20 sized paint by number, but most paint by number canvases have another inch or more around the edge to make mounting possible. I usually purchase inexpensive mounted blank canvases and staple the paint by number projects over them so that hangers can be attached or the picture can go into a frame. That strategy wasn't possible with this one. I ended up glueing the edges to a canvas and squeezing the whole thing into a frame. A lot of people prefer that their paint by number canvases arrive rolled rather than folded but I have had this problem more often with rolled canvases being cut with very small edges.

I was not clear that the canvas would arrive folded. I used my quilting room iron WITHOUT STEAM on the backside to flatten the piece smooth. I had stretched canvases already (a chain craft store often has Buy One Get Two Free - so I had 3 canvases for $20). I used Gorilla Super Glue to attach the canvas over one I had ( glue on sides and back of finished canvas...not behind where you will paint). Fast drying super glue let me attach one edge and once set - I could pull opposite side tight before applying glue to it. Got great results - and it was easier for me to paint on the stretched canvas ( edges are wood, can turn and rest on my lap) I had to use a magnifying glass to reference the painting instructions - but it was useful to get correct paint color when touching up edges. I am nearly finished. I am feathering edges in the background to remove the crisp lines (the right side has feathering...the left side doesn’t at this point) Loving the results. Will be gifting this Owl to my daughter for her new apartment.

A fun and easy painting. Plenty of paint, canvas is good quality and printing was easy to see.

Absolutely love paint by numbers. This canvas is absolutely stunning that I’m in the process of framing it.

I struggle with giving this between three and four stars. It is a pretty picture, but it was a little tedious to complete. Some of the distinctions in Color were completely unnecessary and you'll figure that out as you go. There's like five or six versions of white, off-white, beige, that make absolutely no difference to the final product. I think it's because a computer must predict when a color change happens or something. Save yourself some time and ignore a lot of the small white changes along the borders. But I digress . my major complaint with this is threefold. 1) some of the paints completely dried up. I had to put this project away for a few months and came back to it. Even paints that I hadn't opened were dry by then. You can add water to revitalize them, but since this is such a detail-oriented project it's hard to use those diluted Paints in the small areas. 2) especially with the whites, numbers and lines were very hard to cover. Expect to paint many areas two to three times over.3) and this is a big one. The final finished area is more like 19.5 in by 15.5 in. If you try to frame it with 16 x 20 stretcher bars you're going to have huge white areas. If you pay for the weird size of 15 by 19 stretcher bars , be very careful because the tail or head may get cut off. For a cheap little project you don't want to end up spending big bucks on a custom frame. I went with 15x19 in the end.. Tail a bit cut off

Numbers on canvas easily visible. Good paint quality. Canvas was rolled vs. folded so less wrinkles. Brushes are mediocre; used my own.

Great kit. Purchased for a friend and she loved it. They numbers are written on the canvas and there is also a "cheat sheet" to use as reference. The paint is great and the paint brushes are average. They are not high quality,but they get the job done. Canvas is thick and can easily be framed. Great workmanship Great project for teens and adults alike.
