Difficulty level : Intermediate
iWhat does this level mean?
- Beginner: one large subject and big areas to paint, little detail. Ideal for a first canvas.
- Intermediate: several elements or colour gradients, with smaller areas. It takes a little more care and a fine brush in places.
- Advanced: a busy scene with many small areas and small faces to paint with a fine brush. For experienced painters, or with patience.
Tip: on a larger canvas the areas are bigger and easier to paint.
Three birds on a blossoming branch paint by numbers kit, to paint yourself
Three birds perch on a knotted branch covered in white flowers. The design also shows a tree stump, green leaves and buds. The feathers mix beige, brown and yellow, and each bird has a pale belly. The background stays soft, between beige and pastel blue, with no strong detail. The portrait format runs the branch diagonally across the canvas. Outlines are crisp and most colour areas are medium sized, which matches the intermediate level of the kit. Allow 12 to 30 hours of painting, depending on the size you choose.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the beige and pastel blue background. It covers the largest areas and goes on quickly with the wide brush. Move to the branch and the stump in brown and dark brown, following the grain of the wood so the knots stand out. Paint the three birds next: the pale belly and the outline of the eye need the fine brush. Finish with the white flowers, loading only a little paint on the tip of the brush. A 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm size leaves enough room for this level of detail.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 12 sizes, from 15x15 cm to 70x80 cm. You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, and the canvas arrives rolled, either without a frame or with a wooden frame to assemble. A higher colour count means more shades to work through in the plumage. Orders are dispatched within 48 hours.

Brushes:The fine brush handles the eyes and feathers, the medium brush fills the flowers, and the wide brush covers the pastel background.
Guide:The paper chart lets you check the numbers for the bark, buds and leaves.

Wooden stretcher bars to assemble stretch the canvas. You paint on a taut surface and hang the finished picture on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this paint by numbers?
30x40 cm suits a first attempt at this design because the colour areas stay large. 40x50 cm leaves more room for the feathers and flowers. From 50x70 cm upwards, allow more hours for the detail in the plumage.
Are the birds difficult to paint?
The kit is intermediate level. The three birds have medium colour areas, and only the eyes, the beaks and the outline of the pale bellies need the fine brush. The branch, the stump and the background fill in with the medium and wide brushes.
Is this a good gift, and where does it hang?
It suits anyone who likes garden birds and spring blossom. The beige, brown and green palette and the portrait format work in a living room, hallway or bedroom. You can give the kit to paint, or hang a finished picture.
How do I use the paint by numbers kit?
Paint the beige and pastel blue background first with the wide brush, then the branch and the stump in brown and dark brown. Do the three birds next, and the white flowers last with the tip of the fine brush. The paper chart helps you check the numbers in the smaller areas.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
Allow around 12 to 30 hours, depending on the size. The background covers large areas, while the birds and white flowers need the fine brush. A 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm size is enough for this level of detail.
