White Rabbit in a Flower Basket Paint by Numbers

White rabbit in a flower basket paint by numbers kit

This white rabbit in a flower basket paint by numbers kit centres on a rabbit wearing a daisy crown, seated in a woven basket. White daisies, yellow wild flowers and green grass surround it, and the basket fills the lower part of the canvas in light and dark brown. The background stays pale, so the head and the flowers hold the attention. Portrait format, intermediate level, with medium areas and a few fine details to paint. Allow around 12 to 30 hours of work. The design sits in our paint by numbers for kids & beginners range, and the linen canvas carries every outline and number.

Tips for painting this design

Start with the background and the grass, the two largest areas, and cover them with the wide brush. Move to the basket next and alternate the light and dark browns so the woven strands stay apart. Keep the white fur for the end: the greys around the paws and the muzzle give the head its shape, and they take the fine brush and thin strokes. The daisies also need the fine brush, with little paint on the tip so the petals stay sharp. A 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm canvas keeps all of this easy to follow without dragging the work out.

Sizes, colours and painting time

The design comes in 9 sizes, from 20x30 to 60x80 cm. Take 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm for a first attempt, where the daisies and the fur stay easy to read, and 60x80 cm or 60x80 cm when you want the basket strands wider. You choose 24, 36 or 48 colours, so the fur and the grass can hold more shades. The canvas arrives rolled, or with a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size, and we dispatch within 48 hours. If you would rather paint another animal, our animal paint by numbers range covers cats, dogs and horses.
