Megara on a Swing paint by numbers: a forest scene to paint
Megara sits on a wooden swing, the ropes held in one hand, a pink flower tucked in her hair. Small pink birds glow around her and pale vines hang between the branches. Her antique pink dress stands out against a deep blue background, with violet and turquoise in the foliage. The square format keeps the swing and the birds in one frame. The dress and background form large colour areas, while the birds and vines have tighter outlines. It belongs to our Disney paint by numbers collection.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the blue and violet background, then the turquoise foliage. These are the largest areas and go on quickly with the wide brush. Leave the antique pink dress and the skin until the end, once the outline of the swing is dry. The pink birds and pale vines need the fine brush: work in small touches and let each colour dry before moving to the next. On a square design, 40x40 cm suits a first attempt, and 60x80 cm gives you more room for the small details.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
What's in the kit
Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines of Megara sitting on the swing and the numbers for the areas to paint.
Paint:The numbered acrylic pots hold the blues, pinks, violets, turquoises and browns seen on the dress and the forest.
Brushes:The fine brush traces the glowing pink birds and the flower in her hair, the medium brush the ropes, the wide brush the blue background.
Guide:The paper guide to the design helps you find the numbers for the glowing vines and the wooden swing.
Optional:The wooden frame to assemble stretches the printed canvas of Megara on the swing so you can paint flat.
Without frame
The canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You paint flat and frame it afterwards if you wish.
With frame
Wooden stretcher bars to assemble stretch the canvas. You paint on a taut surface and hang the picture on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this square picture?
40x40 cm keeps the original square framing and stays comfortable for a first attempt. 50x70 cm and 60x80 cm enlarge the birds and vines, which makes the small outlines easier to work.
Are the birds and vines difficult to paint?
They form the smallest areas of the picture, with tight outlines. The fine brush in the kit is enough. Allow an extra session for these details compared with the background and the dress.
Who is this kit for?
It suits anyone who likes Hercules and the character Megara, or who wants a cartoon picture to paint. The square format sits on a shelf or a small wall. The kit contains the canvas, the numbered pots and three brushes.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
This intermediate design takes patience. Paint the blue and violet background first with the wide brush, then the turquoise foliage. Leave the antique pink dress and the skin until the end. The pink birds and pale vines are done with the fine brush, in small touches.
How do I rescue dried paint?
The numbered acrylic pots dry out quickly. Work colour by colour and close each pot after use. If a shade dries on the canvas, apply a thin layer of the same colour. Let it dry before moving to the next, especially near the pale vines.
