Difficulty level : Advanced
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.
A grumpy white baby monkey paint by numbers kit
The face carries the joke: fists pushed into the cheeks, pale pink ears sticking out, a wrinkled muzzle and black eyes looking straight at you. Around it the white fur breaks into fine tufts over grey, and the brown branch holds the bottom of the square canvas. The blurred grey background pushes the monkey forward. Level: intermediate, with medium areas on the fur and small ones on the face and ears. Work takes 12 to 30 hours depending on the size, and the 24, 36 or 48 colour options split the whites and greys into finer steps.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the blurred grey background: broad flat areas with the wide brush, and no need for a neat edge where the fur will cover it later. Paint the brown branch next, then the monkey's body in beige and light grey. Leave the white fur until last and work tuft by tuft, alternating white, light grey and beige without blending them on the canvas. The fine brush handles the wrinkles, the black eyes and the pink ears. A 30x40 cm or 40x40 cm canvas gives you enough room for those details without turning the picture into a month of evenings.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 20x30 to 60x80 cm (9 sizes). You choose a 24, 36 or 48 colour kit, 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 hours depending on the size.
What's in the kit
Canvas:The printed linen canvas shows the grumpy white baby monkey and the branch outlined and numbered, from 20x30 cm up to 60x80 cm.
Paint:The numbered acrylic pots are ready to use and cover the white, pale pink, grey, beige and brown of the fur, ears and branch.
Brushes:The fine brush is for the eyes and the wrinkles, the medium one for the fur, and the wide one for the grey background.
Guide:The paper guide with the design lets you check a number on the monkey or the branch before the paint goes down.
Optional:The wooden frame to assemble keeps the canvas taut, which makes the small areas of the face easier to fill cleanly. You can also choose it already mounted on its frame, ready to hang.
We pack the rolled canvas or the canvas with its wooden frame to assemble, and both leave us within 48 hours.
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.
Mounted canvas
The canvas arrives already stretched on its wooden frame. You start painting right away and hang the picture on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this white monkey?
30x40 cm suits a first paint by numbers and keeps the face readable. The 40x40 cm keeps the square framing of the design and gives the tufts of fur more space. Above 50x70 cm the grey background and the fur take considerably longer to fill.
Are the details of the face difficult to paint?
The wrinkled muzzle and the black eyes sit in small numbered areas, so use the fine brush and keep your hand steady. Allow an hour or two for that part. The fur around it covers medium areas, which means the rest of the canvas moves faster.
Who is this picture a good gift for?
Anyone who likes animals with attitude. The grumpy expression suits a birthday or a housewarming, and the kit arrives complete with canvas, paints and brushes, so nothing else needs buying. Pick the size and the number of colours to match the person receiving it.
Which colour should I start with in paint by numbers?
For this picture, start with the blurred grey background in broad flat areas using the wide brush. Then paint the brown branch and the monkey's body in beige and light grey. The white fur comes last, tuft by tuft, with the fine brush kept for the wrinkles, eyes and pink ears.
What are the tips for painting by numbers?
Follow the order in the tips: grey background, brown branch, monkey's body, then white fur, alternating white, light grey and beige without blending them on the canvas. Use the fine brush for the eyes and the pink ears. The paper guide helps you find each number first.
