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.

Three sparrows on a branch paint by numbers: a realistic bird portrait
Three tree sparrows sit on a rough tree trunk in a vertical composition. Their plumage is beige, brown and ochre, set against a pale background. Thin branches with small green leaves frame the birds, and the bark details give the trunk some depth. You paint each bird area by area, from the pale belly to the brown patterns on the wings. The style is realistic, so the result reads as a bird portrait. The kit belongs to our bird paint by numbers range.
Tips for painting this design
The level is intermediate: most areas are medium-sized, with some fine details on the heads and wings. Start with the beige background with the wide brush, taking care not to run over the outlines of the birds. Then paint the trunk in the dark browns, following the direction of the bark with the medium brush. Keep the fine brush for the small colour areas of the heads, wings and leaves. Plan on around 12 to 30 hours, depending on the size you pick.
Beige, brown and green sit easily in a hallway, a study or a living room. If you like quiet natural scenes, our nature paint by numbers collection has more to choose from.
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 linen canvas has the outlines and numbers printed on it, so the three sparrows, the trunk and the branches are already marked out.
Paint:The numbered acrylic paints are ready to use and cover the beige, brown, green, ochre and white of the plumage and bark. You choose 24, 36 or 48 colours.
Brushes:The fine brush is for the feathers and leaves, the medium for the trunk, the wide for the beige background.
Guide:The paper chart of the design lets you check the numbers for the sparrows, branches and foliage.
Optional:The wooden frame to assemble stretches the printed canvas so you can paint the three sparrows on a flat surface. 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
Which size should I choose for the three sparrows design?
The design comes in 9 sizes, from 20x30 to 60x80 cm. In the smaller sizes the heads and wing patterns are tight and need the fine brush throughout. From 40x50 cm upwards the feather markings have more room. The 24, 36 or 48 colour options set how much shading you paint.
Should I order the kit with a frame or without?
The canvas arrives rolled without a frame, or with a wooden frame to assemble. The frame stretches the printed linen so you paint on a flat surface. The rolled version suits you if you plan to frame the finished picture yourself.
Is the sparrow kit a good gift?
Yes, for someone who likes garden birds and realistic painting. The level is intermediate, with medium areas and some fine details, so it suits a person who has painted before. The kit includes canvas, numbered acrylic paints and three brushes, and we dispatch within 48 hours.
How do you paint by numbers?

Is paint by numbers difficult?
The design of three sparrows on a trunk is intermediate, with medium areas and some fine details on the heads and wings. Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size you choose.
