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.
Gorjuss Reading Under a Tree paint by numbers: the girl, the book and the apples
A girl with long black hair and small black eyes sits against a tree trunk, an open book in her hands. She wears a white embroidered dress and striped tights, and a wicker basket of red apples rests at her feet. Bushes close off the light forest behind her. Off-white, brown, red, sage green and beige cover most of the canvas, with the red fruit as the strongest note. Outlines and numbers are printed on the linen, so each area takes its matching acrylic and nothing is drawn freehand. The square format holds the character tightly. Every design in our Gorjuss paint by numbers range uses the same printed canvas. We dispatch kits within 48 hours, which leaves room for a birthday.
Tips for painting this design
Paint the sage green and beige background first to set the scene, then the brown trunk. Leave the white dress and striped tights until the end so nothing smudges them. The small black eyes and pink cheeks need the fine brush, and the red apples in the basket reward light, careful strokes. Choose a 40x40 cm size or larger if you want room for the dress embroidery and the face. We rate the kit intermediate: medium areas plus a few fine details, roughly 12 to 30 hours of painting depending on the size. For other pictures built around one female figure, look at our paint by numbers women kits.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this Gorjuss paint by numbers?
The design is square, so stay with a square size. A 40x40 cm or 50x50 cm canvas gives you room to paint the eyes, the striped tights and the dress embroidery without squeezing the brush. Below 30x30 cm those areas get tight.
Are the Gorjuss face and dress hard to paint?
They ask for patience more than skill. The eyes and pink cheeks take the fine brush, and the striped tights go faster with two thin coats than one thick one. We rate the kit intermediate, with medium areas and a few fine details.
How many paint colours come with this kit?
You choose 24, 36 or 48 numbered acrylic pots when you order. They are ready to use, so no mixing is needed for the off-white, brown, red, sage green and beige of the design. The larger sets give you more shades for the dress embroidery and the apples.
Who is this Gorjuss painting a good gift for?
Fans of the Gorjuss character and anyone who likes cartoon illustration with a slightly dark edge. Expect 12 to 30 hours of painting depending on the size, so it suits a teenager or an adult who has painted by numbers before. The wooden frame option lets you stretch the finished canvas.
