Mount Fuji, Cherry Blossoms and Birds Paint by Numbers

Mount Fuji and cherry blossoms paint by numbers kit

The scene is centred on Mount Fuji, its conical peak covered in white snow. Cherry trees in bloom frame it with pale pink petals, and a calm river below reflects both the volcano and the trees. Dark grey rocks line the bank, a few black birds cross a light blue sky with stylised clouds, and soft green hills sit behind the mountain. The cartoon style keeps the shapes easy to read, with pale pink, white, light blue and soft orange as the main colours. The portrait format gives the volcano its full height. The kit belongs to our range of Japanese paint by numbers, and if you like scenery you will find more in our landscape paint by numbers collection.

Tips for painting this design

The level is Intermediate: most areas are medium-sized, with fine details on the petals, the branches and the birds. Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size you choose. Start with the light blue sky and the clouds to set the background, then paint the snowy mountain, applying white over the large areas. Use the fine brush to separate the clusters of pink flowers on the cherry branches. Paint the river and its reflections last. The dark grey rocks on the bank need two coats to cover the printed canvas. Choose 40x50 cm or larger if you want room to paint every petal floating on the water.

As a gift, the picture suits anyone who likes Japan or spring landscapes. The pale pink, white and light blue palette works well on a bedroom or living room wall.

Sizes, colours and painting time

The design comes in 20x30 to 60x80 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.
