Butterfly on pink flower paint by numbers kit: a glowing fairy butterfly
The composition fills the centre of the portrait canvas with a large butterfly, its wings purple and pink, resting on an open pink flower. White sparks and a dusting of light cross a dark woodland. The midnight blue background pushes the purple and magenta of the wings forward. Small purple flowers sit along the bottom and dark foliage closes off the background. The fairy style suits anyone who also likes fantasy paint by numbers, and the kit belongs with our wider butterfly paint by numbers range. The linen canvas is printed with outlines and numbers, and each numbered acrylic pot matches one area. The level is advanced: the wings are cut into many fine sections, especially near the body and along the veins.
Tips for painting this design
Begin with the midnight blue background and the dark foliage. They frame the butterfly and keep your brush away from the wings later. Paint the pink flower next, then the small purple flowers at the bottom. Keep the whites and the sparks for the end and use the fine brush. The wing veins call for small strokes, and each section should dry before you paint its neighbour. The 40x50 cm size or larger gives the fine sections more room, and the 48 colour option gives you more shades for the purple and magenta gradients.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a 24, 36 or 48 colour kit, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this butterfly?
40x50 cm suits the fine detail in the wings and foliage. 30x40 cm works if you are comfortable with smaller sections. At 60x80 cm the veins and sparks get more room, which makes them easier to paint with the fine brush. The kit comes in 12 sizes, from 15x15 to 70x80 cm.
Is this design difficult to paint?
The level is advanced. The wings and flower are cut into many fine sections, and the purple and magenta gradients need several coats. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size you choose. A larger size gives you bigger sections to paint.
Who is this picture a good gift for?
It suits someone who likes butterflies or fairy-style woodland scenes and has some painting practice, as the level is advanced. The portrait format hangs on a wall or sits on an easel. The kit arrives complete with paints and brushes, and we dispatch within 48 hours.
How do you paint by numbers?
Paint the midnight blue background and the dark foliage first. Then do the pink flower, followed by the small purple flowers at the bottom. Keep the whites and the sparks for the end and use the fine brush for them.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
The wing veins need precision. Work in small strokes and let the paint dry before painting a neighbouring section. Choose 40x50 cm or larger for the fine sections, and the 48 colour option for the purple and magenta gradients.
