A goldfish and lotus fish paint by numbers
This fish paint by numbers design shows two orange goldfish beside a pink lotus flower. They sit on a stylised pond surface. Concentric ripples in dark green circle the scene from the centre outwards. Green lily pads rest around the flower. The style is naive, with simple shapes and bold, flat colour. The fish, the lotus petals and the lily pads all have a dot-mosaic texture. Orange and pink stand out against emerald and dark green, with touches of yellow. The level of detail is high, so there are many small areas to fill. It suits anyone who enjoys steady, patient painting. You receive a printed linen canvas with numbered outlines, numbered acrylic paints, 3 brushes, a paper guide and free UK delivery.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the dark green ripples, using the medium brush for the wider bands. Work on one ring at a time so your hand does not rest on wet paint. Paint the lily pads next, then move on to the lotus petals. Use the fine brush for the small dot-mosaic areas on the fish and petals, where the numbered shapes are tightest. Keep the large brush for any open patches of water. The design has a lot of colour changes, so 36 or 48 colours give smoother shading on the fish and petals than 24. Allow each colour to dry before painting beside it, and the edges will stay crisp.
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.

Questions about this design
What size should I choose for the goldfish and lotus picture?
The design is square and comes in 9 sizes from 20x30 to 60x80 cm. The high level of detail suits a larger size, where the small dot-mosaic areas are easier to paint. Time ranges from around 12 to 30 hours depending on size.
Which part of this picture is the trickiest?
The dot-mosaic texture on the fish and lotus petals has many small shapes, so take your time with the fine brush. Paint one petal or one fish at a time and let each colour dry before moving to its neighbour.
Who is this kit a good gift for?
It suits anyone who likes animals, ponds or bold, simple colour. The naive style is friendly, and the kit includes everything needed, with free UK delivery. Patient beginners and experienced painters alike can enjoy it.
