- Intermediate: several elements or colour gradients, with smaller areas. It takes a little more care and a fine brush in places.

Grandma and cat in a tutu paint by numbers kit: a rocker grandma and her ginger cat to paint yourself
The grandma has messy white hair, round glasses and one arm raised mid-dance. Beside her, a ginger cat in a yellow tutu wears headphones over its ears. Both wear bright yellow headphones and matching clogs. Her fringed knitted dress fills the centre of the canvas with grey and beige, and light feathers drift across a grey studio background. Yellow, grey, white, ochre and beige dominate, which keeps the finished picture warm and light. The 3D cartoon style gives clean outlines that are easy to follow with a brush.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the light grey background and the feathers. They sit around the edges and go on in broad flat areas. Then move to the fringed dress: each fringe has its own number, so use the fine brush to keep the gaps between them clean. The yellow tutu and the headphones need the most care. Their yellows are close, so open one pot at a time and check the number before you load the brush. Leave the white of the hair and feathers for last, so it stays clean beside the grey. The level is intermediate, with medium areas and some fine details. A 40x40 cm canvas suits the square framing and gives the fringes enough room.

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 and numbers of the grandma, the cat in a tutu and the feathers on a light grey background.
Paint:The numbered acrylic pots are ready to use and include the yellow of the tutu, the grey of the background, the white of the hair and the ochre of the clogs.
Brushes:Three brushes come in the kit. Use the fine one for the round glasses and the feathers, the medium one for the face and the wide one for the grey background.
Guide:The paper guide helps you find the numbers for the ginger cat, the fringed dress and the headphones.
Optional:The wooden frame to assemble stretches the printed canvas, so you paint the dance scene on a flat surface without creases.
Without frame
The canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You paint it 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 finished picture on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this square picture?
The picture is square, so a square size such as 40x40 cm shows the grandma, the cat and the feathers in full. Sizes run from 15x15 to 70x80 cm. On 30x40 cm the fringes of the dress become thin, so choose a larger canvas if you want room for them.
How many hours does this kit take to paint?
Allow around 12 to 30 hours, depending on the size you choose. Each area is closed off by its printed outline, so you can stop after the background, after the dress or after the tutu and pick up the next session without losing your place.
Does the kit come with a frame?
Both options are offered. The canvas arrives rolled without a frame, or with a wooden frame to assemble that stretches the printed canvas so you paint on a flat surface. Orders are dispatched within 48 hours.
Who is this paint kit a good gift for?
It suits anyone who likes humour and cats, or a grandma who enjoys laughing at herself. The finished picture works in a kitchen, hallway or study, and the complete kit can be given as it is.
How do I use the paint by numbers kit?
Paint each area according to the number on the canvas. Begin with the light grey background and the feathers, then do the fringed dress with the fine brush. Finish with the yellow tutu, the headphones and the white of the hair. The paper guide lets you check any number.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
The level is intermediate. The background and feathers are easy flat areas. The challenge is the fringes of the dress and the close yellows of the tutu and headphones, which stay clean if you work with one pot open at a time.
