A flamingos at sunrise paint by numbers to paint yourself
Two flamingos stand in the calm water of a lake at sunrise. This paint by numbers birds design shows an orange sky reflected on the surface, reeds along the edges and distant silhouettes on the horizon. The pink of the birds answers the orange of the sky and the blue of the water. The green of the reeds closes the composition at the sides. The square format keeps both birds in the centre. The printed canvas carries the outlines and numbers, with a paper chart to check each area.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the orange sky and the blue water, the two largest areas. Keep the pink pots for the flamingos, painting the body first and then the darker wings. The reflections in the water mean following the numbers without mixing up the shades. Paint the green reeds last, with the fine brush. The detail is high: choose 40x40 cm or larger to keep the areas crisp, and 36 colours for the sky gradients.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size.
What's in the kit
Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines and numbers of the flamingos, the lake and the orange sky.
Paint:The numbered acrylic pots cover the pinks of the flamingos, the oranges of the sky and the blues of the water.
Brushes:The fine brush is for the reeds and distant silhouettes, the broad one for the flat areas of sky.
Guide:The paper chart lets you check the numbers of the sunrise and reflection areas.
Optional:The wooden frame to assemble stretches the lake canvas, otherwise it arrives rolled in a tube.
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.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this flamingos painting?
The detail is high, especially in the reflections and reeds. Go for 40x40 cm or 50x50 cm to keep the areas wide enough. 30x30 cm works if you paint with a fine brush and patience.
Are the reflections in the water difficult to paint?
The reflections mean following the numbers without swapping the shades. Each area has its number, but the transitions between pink, orange and blue sit next to each other. Allow 20 to 40 h depending on the size.
Who is this paint by numbers kit a good gift for?
For someone who likes birds and lake landscapes. The square format suits a living room or bedroom wall. The kit contains the canvas, numbered pots, three brushes and the check chart.
Which paint is suitable for a beginner?
This kit supplies ready to use numbered acrylic pots and three brushes. Follow the tips on the page: start with the orange sky and blue water, then the pink flamingos, and finish the green reeds with the fine brush. The paper chart helps you check the area numbers.
How do I revive dried paint?
The pots are closed and ready to use. Close each pot after use to stop the acrylic drying out. If a shade thickens, add a drop of water and mix. Paint the large areas of sky and water first, then the flamingos and reeds.
