Moonlit Beach Paint by Numbers

Moonlit beach paint by numbers kit: crescent moon, turquoise sea and glowing pebbles

A yellow crescent moon sits at the top of the canvas, above a turquoise sea and a pale sandy beach. Multicoloured pebbles on the sand glow in purple, blue and gold, and white stars dot the deep blue sky. The portrait format stacks the sky, the horizon and the shoreline in clear bands, so you always know which area you are working on. The level is advanced because of the many fine details, mainly the stars and the pebbles. Allow around 20 to 40 hours depending on the size you choose. The strong contrast between the dark sky and the turquoise, yellow, gold and white areas makes the finished picture stand out on a shelf or a narrow wall. You can find more scenes like this one in our fantasy paint by numbers collection.

Tips for painting this design

Start with the deep blue sky, the largest area, using the wide brush. Paint the sea next in turquoise bands, then add the white waves with a light touch so the transitions stay soft. The crescent moon needs a single coat of bright yellow and no mixing. Save the glowing pebbles for last: each one combines purple, blue and gold, applied in small touches with the fine brush, one colour at a time. On a 40x50 cm size or larger, the white stars in the sky stay crisp. If you enjoy shorelines, our beach and sea paint by numbers range has other coastal scenes.

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 hours depending on the size.
