Small dog behind a fence paint by numbers: a curious terrier to paint
A brown puppy with beige and brown fur rests its two front paws on wooden posts. It has a dark muzzle and looks straight ahead with two round black eyes. A white fence runs across the lower part of the picture, and the background is a plain, light sky blue with a slight textured grain. The palette is simple: white for the slats, tawny tones for the coat, sky blue behind, and black for the eyes and nose. The portrait format suits a hallway, a bedroom or a spot beside a favourite chair.
Tips for painting this design
This is an intermediate design with medium areas and some fine details. Start with the sky blue background using the wide brush, which sets the contrast for the rest. Then fill in the posts of the white fence. Light paint needs two coats to cover the printed numbers. Finish with the dog's head and paws, where the shifts between brown, beige and black call for the fine brush. Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size. A 40x50 cm canvas gives you enough room to paint the strands of fur around the muzzle cleanly. If you prefer a quicker project, the smaller sizes group the muzzle shades into tighter areas.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this dog design?
The 40x50 cm size suits the fur detail around the muzzle well. Smaller sizes such as 20x30 cm group the muzzle shades into smaller areas, so they take more care with the fine brush. There are 12 sizes, from 15x15 to 70x80 cm.
Are the details of the coat difficult to paint?
The level of detail is moderate. The posts and the sky form large flat areas that are simple to fill. Only the nose and forehead area needs precision with the fine brush.
Who is this paint by numbers kit a good gift for?
This design suits terrier owners and anyone who loves pets. The level is intermediate, and the large fence and sky areas give a steady rhythm between the detailed parts.
How do you paint by numbers?
Paint the sky blue background with the wide brush, then the posts of the white fence, covering the numbers with two coats. Finish with the dog's head and paws using the fine brush for the brown, beige and black transitions. The paper guide helps you check the numbers of the areas.
How do you thin acrylic paint?
The numbered acrylic paint pots are ready to use. If a colour thickens, add a drop of water and mix. Keep the pots closed between sessions so the light paints for the fence stay workable.
