Cheshire Cat paint by numbers: a purple cat to paint at home
A young Cheshire Cat floats in the middle of a dark scene, striped in purple and white, with a very wide grin and pointed teeth. Its two green eyes stand out against the fluffy fur. Behind it, misty blue and mauve blocks of colour surround the black silhouette of a tree branch. The cool background lets the purple fur come forward, so the cat stays the focus of the picture.
The cartoon style and the humorous expression make it a good fit for a bedroom or a relaxing space, and a fitting gift for someone who loves classic tales or cats. It is an intermediate kit with medium areas and some fine details. It sits well alongside other funny paint by numbers designs.
Tips for painting this design
Begin with the dark tones of the background, then paint the purple and white stripes of the body, using the fine brush to define the edges of the fur. Leave the teeth and green eyes until last, once the surrounding colours are dry, so their outlines stay sharp. A square size such as 40x40 cm keeps the original framing of the illustration and makes the small numbered areas easier to read. If you enjoy this subject, our cat paint by numbers range has more feline designs.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 20x20 to 50x60 cm (9 sizes). You choose a kit with 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.
What's in the kit
Canvas:Linen canvas with the outlines and numbers already printed, from the pointed ears to the front paws.
Paint:Numbered acrylic pots, ready to use, covering the white, purple, green, mauve and blue of the cat and the background.
Brushes:The fine brush is for the pointed teeth and green eyes, the medium one for the purple stripes and the wide one for the misty background.
Guide:The paper guide helps you check the numbers on the tree branch silhouette and around the cat's smile.
Optional:Choose the wooden frame to assemble if you want the canvas stretched. Without it, the canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You can also choose it already mounted on its frame, ready to hang.
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 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 Cheshire Cat design?
The composition is square, so 20x20, 20x20, 40x40 or 50x50 cm keep the full picture without cropping the background. At 40x40 cm the face and eye areas are comfortable to paint and the numbers stay easy to read.
Does this design have any details that are hard to paint?
The level is intermediate. The areas around the smile, pointed teeth and green pupils are small and call for the fine brush supplied. The misty blue and mauve blocks of the background are medium areas and quick to cover.
Who is this painting kit suitable for?
It suits fans of classic tales and cats who want a humorous, cartoon-style picture for a bedroom or a quiet corner. Some experience helps with the fine details, but the large background areas keep the pace relaxed.
Which colour should I start with in paint by numbers?
Start with the dark background tones, then paint the purple and white stripes of the body, using the fine brush on the edges of the fur. Do the teeth and green eyes last, with care. The paper guide helps you check the numbers of each area.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size you choose. The teeth and green eyes take the most precision. A square 40x40 cm size keeps the original framing and makes the small numbers easier to read.
