FAQs
Please read our full FAQs page to find out more.
How long does it take to complete a painting?
It depends on the complexity of the image and your pace. Most people complete a standard kit in 10–20 hours over a few sessions.
Is the extra paint set necessary for all kits?
Most customers don’t need extra paint, but if you prefer layering or tend to paint generously, a backup set can be handy—especially for larger or detailed designs.
Do the numbers show through the paint?
Typically, no. Our paints offer good coverage. For very light colors, a second coat may be helpful to fully cover the numbers. Read our full guide on paint coverage here.
What if I run out of paint?
Just reach out to our support team with your order number—we offer free paint refills for most kits.
Do I need any extra tools or accessories?
Your paint by numbers kit includes everything you need to get started. That said, many painters love adding a few extras like precision detail brushes or a magnifying lamp to make painting even smoother and more relaxing. They're totally optional, but great if you’re going for that polished finish. Check our accessories section for more helpful tools.
Let customers speak for us
This painting is so beautiful! It took me a few weekends to finish, and that's exactly what I was looking for -- something challenging yet not too overwhelming. Van Gogh is my favorite artist, and I felt so honored to be painting a replica of his work.
Yes I ordered it a second time
Great quality canvas
Great quality paint
Hydrangeas are my favorite flower so I enjoyed the process of creating this
This painting of violets reminds me of old fashioned postcards. I enjoyed every minute of working on it.
So much fun and very calming. Great purchase.
It's so relaxing to paint with vivid colors while listening to a avorite YouTube channel.
Enjoyed painting this one!
Fun
Great start to a new hobby
I love this print by Inge Look. Rather than Two Old Ladies Drinking Coffee, I saw two old ladies hiding in the dark going through as many books as possible before they are banned. The colors were beautiful.
Marilyn Monroe
Fun to do and very satisfied with the result. It does require a steady hand and good eyesight as the feathers are minutely textured
Van Gogh paintings are my favorite to do! The dude was a flat out genius. Love the colors in the “Sunflowers” painting. Quality canvas and paints. This is my 3rd VG so far.
The canvas in this kit is colored which I appreciate as it helps me to move faster. Although it is only 8x8, the details are small and took longer than I expected (plus I had to use magnifier glasses). Clear directions, plenty of paint, and a large copy of the PNB were included in the kit.
My only negative mention is color #24 (2289) is VERY light -- almost no difference between the white color.
I also bought the other snowy scene that goes with this particular one. I will do that later!
This is the best kit I have ever ordered. Won’t go anywhere else now!
