A Christmas penguin paint by numbers kit for an intermediate painter
A cartoon penguin in a red hat hangs a bauble on a tree. Around it you paint a gingerbread house, candy canes and golden garlands. Green, red, white, black and gold dominate the design. The white snow gives strong contrast against the black plumage and the green branches. The portrait format shows the whole tree from base to top. Most areas are medium-sized, with some fine details, so we rate it intermediate. Allow roughly 12 to 30 hours, depending on the size you choose.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the white snow and sky to lay down the light base areas. Then fill in the penguin's black body and the green branches. Use the fine brush for the small red areas of the hat and scarf. The golden baubles and the gingerbread house need a steady hand, so leave them until you are settled into the canvas. At 40x50 cm, the garland patterns are comfortable to paint without crossing the lines. If you want a shorter project, the 15x15 cm size is the smallest we offer.
If you like seasonal themes, our Christmas paint by numbers range has more winter designs. For a similar cartoon style with an animal as the subject, see our animal paint by numbers kits.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this design?
The 40x50 cm size gives a good balance for painting the tree decorations and the penguin's face without difficulty. The 20x30 cm size suits you if you prefer a shorter project.
Are the gingerbread house details hard to paint?
They are manageable with the fine brush in the kit. The windows and candy canes call for a steady hand and a little care when you apply the colour.
Who is this painting kit a good gift for?
It suits anyone who likes winter themes, and a child can paint it with an adult helping. The cartoon penguin makes it a friendly Christmas gift.
What are the tips for painting by numbers?
Paint the white snow and sky first, then the penguin's black body and the green branches. Use the fine brush for the red hat and scarf. The paper guide helps you check the numbers for each area.
