A Manhattan skyline at night painting to paint yourself
The Manhattan skyline fills the lower half of the canvas, broken into skyscrapers pierced by orange windows. A yellow full moon sits high in a deep blue sky. At the bottom, the dark water carries golden reflections and two boats. This Manhattan skyline at night paint by numbers design plays on two colour families: the cool blues of the sky and river, and the golds and oranges of the lights. The contrast reads from a distance. The drawing stays sharp, with broad blocks of colour on the towers and finer details on the windows and reflections.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the deep blue sky and the water, the two largest areas. Save the yellows and oranges for the windows and the moon: apply them last to avoid mixing them with the blues. On the skyscrapers, work tower by tower, from top to bottom, and let each dry before moving on. The reflections on the water need a fine brush. Given the number of windows, choose 40x50 cm or larger with the 36 colour option.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a 24, 36 or 48 colour kit, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this night skyline?
40x50 cm works well to keep the windows legible without taking weeks. Below 30x40 cm, the small lights on the towers become difficult to fill. Above 60x80 cm, allow more like 30 to 40 h of work.
Are the skyscraper details difficult to paint?
The orange windows and the reflections on the water need precision. The rest fills in broad blocks. The 36 colour option helps distinguish the shades of blue in the sky and the oranges of the lights.
Who is this kit a good gift for?
For someone who loves New York or city views at night. The design stays legible for a beginner adult, and the 40x50 cm size fits a standard frame once finished.
