Paint by numbers kits

Painting by numbers is one of the top 100 hobbies of the century. It is a creative way to spend your free time and have fun. The best part is that anyone can do it, regardless of age or experience level.

Getting into painting by numbers is fairly easy. All you need to do is fill in the numbered spaces on the canvas with the corresponding color to complete a painting. EM ART offers a variety of paint by numbers kits to choose from.

Tips and Tricks

These paint by numbers tips will save you time and effort.

Keep Your Work Place Clean

Cover the area where you plan to work with old newspapers to keep it clean. The paints aren’t very fluid, so the risk of making a mess is minimal.

Nevertheless, having a clean and organized space will help you focus on your work and avoid splashes and stains.

Start from the Top

Start at the top of the canvas and work your way down to avoid smudging. If you’re left-handed, it’s better to start from the top right corner, while if you’re right-handed, start from the top left. This way, the risk of smudging will be minimized.

Paint one color at a time, preferably starting with darker colors. These are usually part of the background and will help you create an outline of the painting you’re working on. Once you finish the background, proceed with the smaller areas.

Keep Your Brushes Clean

Clean your brushes every time you switch from one color to another. The paint dries quickly and could ruin your brush if you don’t wash it immediately. Prepare a bottle of water and a bowl for cleaning brushes. You can also use a wet cloth.

Pay Attention to the Paints

Remember to close the paint lid when you’re not using it as it can dry out quickly. If the paint dries out, add water to restore its creamy texture.

Don’t Be Afraid to Make Mistakes

If you fill in a number with the wrong color, don’t worry. You can wait for the paint to dry and cover the surface with the correct color. If you can still see the wrong color underneath, cover it with another layer of the correct color.

Don’t Overdo It

Don’t use too much paint on a section as the canvas may not absorb the excess paint well, which could cause smudging.

Take a Break

You don’t have to complete it all at once. Do it in parts and enjoy it. Don’t rush when you feel it’s taking too long; remind yourself that it took Leonardo Da Vinci 7 years to complete the Mona Lisa.

Using the Remaining Paints

Once you’ve finished your painting, you’ll be left with some paint in the containers. Instead of letting it dry out and go to waste, use it for other projects.

A Bit of Advice

Our paint by numbers kits come with acrylic paints. This paint doesn’t come off easily once it dries on the brush. It takes up a lot of time to remove.

Here is a trick from EM ART on how to do this fast. Get a lacquer thinner and dip your brush in it for just a few seconds. The coagulated paint will quickly leave the bristles of the brush without any issues.

We suggest that you don’t use the paint directly on the canvas. Since we’ve mentioned that this paint is thicker, add a few drops of water before applying it to adjust its consistency to your needs.

Here is a secret. Your brushes require frequent cleaning while painting. Use a wet cloth instead of a paper towel. The paper towel wears out quickly compared to a wet cloth. This will help you remove the paint residue from the brush quickly and effectively.

Sometimes it takes some effort to work with new brushes. If you’re an artist, you know what we mean. If you have your own brushes, use them instead to have more control and comfort.

Purpose of the Brushes

There are three different brushes included in the kit - small, medium and large. Each has a different job. The large, medium, and small brushes are used respectively for softness, sharpness, and freshness for large and small areas.

However, you can use them according to your needs, but keep in mind that you shouldn’t paint all parts with one brush.

Take out your smartphone and take a full picture of the canvas before painting. This will help you check which number was associated with a particular section before it was painted, in case you forget.

Zoom in on the picture on your phone to see the small numbers in case you can’t see it well.

Don’t Forget

All tips and tricks are ineffective if you are not mentally prepared to paint. It’s important to enjoy the process and relax.

Imagine the first stroke of the brush is a feather. Relax your nervous system and bring this peace of mind to the canvas. This is how you paint like a true master.
