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

A Japanese waves and cherry blossom paint by numbers kit on linen canvas
Navy and black seigaiha waves run across the whole portrait canvas, and red and white cherry blossom stands out against the rolling lines. The composition follows traditional Japanese art, with overlapping curves and petals that fill the surface. The main colours are navy blue, red, white, beige and black. Each numbered area tells you which acrylic shade goes on the linen. The level is advanced and the design has many fine details, so allow around 20 to 40 hours depending on the size. If you like this style, our Japanese paint by numbers collection has more designs to choose from.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the large navy areas in the centre of the picture to set the base of the waves, using the wide brush. Switch to the fine brush for the seigaiha patterns, where the black lines are narrow and close together. Paint the red cherry blossom once the blue background is dry to avoid smudges, and let each colour dry before moving on to the neighbouring areas. The 40x50 cm size or larger leaves more room for the small geometric details. Sizes run from 15x15 cm to 70x80 cm, and you can pick 24, 36 or 48 colours in the options. For more blossom subjects, see our flower paint by numbers kits.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for the waves and cherry blossom design?
The design has many fine details, so 40x50 cm or larger is easier to work on, and 50x70 cm gives the seigaiha lines and petals more room. Sizes run from 15x15 cm to 70x80 cm across 12 options.
Is this kit suitable for beginners?
It is rated advanced. The black and blue seigaiha lines are narrow and close together, so you need the fine brush and a steady hand. Allow around 20 to 40 hours depending on the size. If you are new to painting by numbers, choose a larger size and work one area at a time.
Who is this traditional Japanese picture a good gift for?
It suits anyone who likes traditional Japanese art and graphic compositions with cherry blossom and stylised waves. The navy, red and white palette gives a clear, bold result. We dispatch within 48 hours.
Does the kit come with a frame?
The canvas arrives rolled without a frame, or with a wooden frame to assemble that stretches the linen. You choose this option on the product page, in the same place as the 24, 36 or 48 colour choice.
