Red Sailboat Sunset Paint by Numbers

Red sailboat sunset paint by numbers: a pop art picture

A sailboat with a red sail and brown hull crosses a blue sea. The sky is made of horizontal pink, yellow and orange stripes, and an orange sun sits at the centre of the scene. White waves surround the hull and a bird flies above. The outlines are wide and the detail stays low, so you follow the printed numbers and fill large blocks of colour. Six dominant colours are spread across the whole canvas. It belongs with our easy paint by numbers designs.

Tips for painting this design

Start with the pink and yellow stripes of the sky, using the wide brush, then paint the blue sea with the same brush. Switch to the medium brush for the red sail and the brown hull. Finish with the orange sun and the white waves. The bird needs the fine brush. Choose 30x30 cm or larger to keep the stripes wide and easy to fill. Smaller sizes narrow them.

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). If you like marine scenes, see our boats and seascape paint by numbers. Allow around 8 to 20 h depending on the size.

What is in the kit

• Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines and numbers of the red-sailed boat, the brown hull and the orange sun.
• Paint:The numbered acrylic paint pots hold the pink, yellow, orange, red, blue and brown shades of the sky and sea.
• Brushes:The fine brush is for the outlines of the bird in flight, the medium for the white waves and the wide for the stripes of the sky.
• Guide:The paper guide to the design helps you check the numbers of the boat areas and the horizontal stripes of the sunset.
• Optional:As an option, the wooden frame to assemble lets you stretch the sailboat canvas, otherwise it arrives rolled in a tube. You can also choose it already mounted on its frame, ready to hang.
