Difficulty level : Beginner
iWhat does this level mean?
- Beginner: one large subject and big areas to paint, little detail. Ideal for a first canvas.
- Intermediate: several elements or colour gradients, with smaller areas. It takes a little more care and a fine brush in places.
- Advanced: a busy scene with many small areas and small faces to paint with a fine brush. For experienced painters, or with patience.
Tip: on a larger canvas the areas are bigger and easier to paint.
Dora and Boots with Fox Paint by Numbers
Dora stands in her pink and orange outfit with the purple backpack on her shoulders, Boots shows off his red boots and Swiper the fox hides behind a large leafy bush. A blue beaded bracelet sits on Dora's wrist. The background stays pale green, so the three characters carry the whole picture. The pink, orange, blue and purple areas are medium-sized and steady to fill, faces and hands are the smallest parts, and the linen canvas keeps their outlines sharp enough to follow by number.
Tips for painting this design
Paint the pale green background first, while the outlines of Dora, Boots and the fox are still easy to read. Take the bush next, then Swiper, and leave the characters for last so the edges have time to dry. The medium brush covers the pink and orange outfit. The fine brush is for the blue bracelet, Dora's face and Boots's red boots. If those small outlines look tight, step up to 40x40 cm or larger and give yourself room to work.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 20x30 to 60x80 cm (9 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with a wooden frame to assemble or with the canvas already mounted on its frame (except in 50x70 and 60x80 cm, delivered rolled). Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size.

Questions about this design
Which size keeps the fox and the bracelet clear?
Go for 40x40 cm or larger. The extra room keeps the outlines of the blue bracelet, the purple backpack and the fox's face from crowding, and the pale green background still takes one pass with the wide brush. On 30x30 cm the characters stay clear, but every small detail gets tight.
Is this design hard to paint?
The kit is rated intermediate. The pink and orange outfit, the bush and the pale green background are medium areas you can fill with the wide brush. The fine brush comes out for Dora's face, the blue bracelet and Boots's red boots, which is where the work slows down.
How long does it take to finish?
Between 12 and 30 hours, depending on the size. A 30x30 cm canvas fits into two or three sittings, while 60x80 cm or 60x80 cm needs more. The plain green background goes quickly and the characters take the longest.
Can I order it with a frame?
Yes. The canvas comes rolled without a frame, or with wooden stretcher bars to assemble. The bars keep the linen taut while you paint, so the numbered areas stay flat and the finished picture is ready to hang once it dries.
