A Jungle Chameleon Paint by Numbers for Patient Painters
This picture shows a chameleon's head in profile, perched on a branch. Its eye is the focal point, built from tight concentric rings. The skin is made up of small dotted scales in a mosaic, pointillist style. A spiky crest runs along the back. Cyan blue, vivid orange, emerald green, golden yellow and deep teal sit side by side across the animal and the foliage. Behind it, a monstera leaf and other large patterned leaves crowd the frame, with dew drops resting on the surfaces. The light is bright and diffused, and the air feels warm and humid. The level of detail is high, so this chameleon paint by numbers suits anyone who enjoys steady, careful work. You receive a printed linen canvas with numbered outlines, numbered acrylic paint pots, three brushes and a paper guide.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the large leaf areas in the background, using the large brush to cover them quickly. Move on to the branch and the body of the chameleon with the medium brush. Keep the fine brush for the eye rings, the dotted scales and the dew drops, where the shapes are smallest. Work from one side of the canvas to the other so your hand does not smudge wet paint. Paint the darker teal and green sections before the lighter yellow and orange ones next to them, which keeps the edges neat. With this much colour variation, the 36 or 48 colour option gives you smoother shifts between the dots. Give yourself plenty of time, as a picture this detailed can take towards the upper end of the 12 to 30 hours.
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:The printed linen canvas carries clear numbered outlines for every scale, leaf and ring of the chameleon's eye.
Paint:Numbered acrylic paint pots (24, 36 or 48 colours) cover the cyan blue, vivid orange, emerald green, golden yellow and deep teal of this jungle scene.
Brushes:Use the fine brush for the eye rings and dotted scales, the medium for the branch and body, and the large for the leaves.
Guide:The paper guide shows you which number matches which colour, so you can plan your painting before you begin.
Optional:An optional wooden frame is available to assemble, so the finished chameleon can hang on the wall; without it, 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 sizes does the chameleon design come in?
The design is square, and we offer 9 sizes from 20x30 to 60x80 cm. Because this picture has a lot of small dotted scales, a larger size gives you more room for the fine detail.
Which part of the chameleon picture is hardest to paint?
The eye with its concentric rings and the dotted scale texture need the most patience. Use the fine brush, take them in short sessions and let each colour dry before painting next to it.
Is this a good gift for someone who likes animals or reptiles?
Yes, it suits anyone who enjoys wildlife and bold colour, from confident beginners to experienced painters. Everything needed is in the box, and delivery in the UK is free.
