A golden monkey paint by numbers for winter
This monkey paint by numbers shows a golden snub-nosed monkey in the middle of a snowy forest. The fur is golden yellow, and it is built up from many small speckles of colour. The face is a bright cerulean blue, with eyes in a lighter blue that draw you in. The monkey grips a branch, and the pose feels alert and steady. Around it, pine trees carry thick layers of snow in soft whites. Icicles hang from the branches, and the forest green of the needles shows through in places. The ground is covered in snow and dotted with small touches of colour, including some violet. The style is impressionist, so the picture is made of many short patches of paint rather than smooth blends. The level of detail is high, which gives you plenty to work on across the fur, the branches and the snow. You receive a printed linen canvas with numbered outlines, numbered acrylic paint pots, three brushes and a paper guide, with free UK delivery.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the snow and the pale areas, so you are not working near wet gold later on. Move on to the forest green of the pine needles before you reach the monkey. Paint the golden fur in small sections, and use the fine brush for the speckled patches where the colours sit side by side. The medium brush suits the branch and the larger shapes of the face, and the large brush covers the wide snowy ground quickly. Leave each patch to dry before painting next to it, so the cerulean blue and the yellow stay clean. If you choose a larger size, the 36 or 48 colour option gives you more of the in-between shades in the fur and the snow, which helps the speckled texture look natural. Take the eyes last, with the fine brush and a steady hand.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 20x30 to 60x80 cm (9 sizes). You choose a 24, 36 or 48 colour kit, 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:Printed linen canvas with numbered outlines marking every patch of golden fur, blue face and snowy branch.
Paint:Numbered acrylic paint pots (24, 36 or 48 colours) covering golden yellow, cerulean blue, snow white, forest green and violet.
Brushes:Fine for the speckled fur and the bright blue eyes, medium for the face and branch, large for the snowy ground and wider areas of pine.
Guide:A paper guide shows which number matches which colour, so you can follow the picture patch by patch.
Optional:An optional wooden frame to assemble lets you display the snowy monkey scene on the wall, otherwise the canvas arrives rolled. 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
What size should I choose for the snowy monkey picture?
The design is square and comes in 9 sizes, from 20x30 cm up to 60x80 cm. The fur and icicles have a lot of small detail, so a larger size gives you more room for the fine brush. Smaller sizes take less time, and the whole kit takes around 12 to 30 hours depending on size.
Which part of this picture is the hardest to paint?
The speckled golden fur is the most detailed area, because it is made of many small patches of different colours. Work in small sections with the fine brush and let each one dry first. The icicles and the coloured dots on the snow also reward a slow, careful approach.
Is this a good gift?
It suits anyone who likes animals, winter scenes or a relaxing hobby at home. Everything needed is in the box: canvas, numbered acrylic paints, three brushes and a paper guide. You can add the optional wooden frame to assemble, and delivery in the UK is free.
