Sangria Glass on the Beach Paint by Numbers

A sangria glass on the beach paint by numbers kit

The glass fills the middle of the canvas, packed with orange slices, strawberries and ice cubes. A green bottle stands to its right, a stemmed glass to its left, and the turquoise sea runs behind both with white wave crests under a starry sky. Reds carry most of the picture, helped by the orange of the citrus, the green of the bottle and the deep blue of the water. The landscape format gives the horizon room to breathe.

The design is graded advanced and the realistic style leaves little slack: every slice, ice cube and reflection has its own numbered area, and the close reds need the fine brush. Take 36 or 48 colours if you want those neighbouring tones kept apart, and pick a larger size if fine work tires your eyes.

Tips for painting this design

Work the sky and the sea first, laying blues across the background while the brush is still clean. Then take the green bottle and the stemmed glass: their reflections sit close in tone, so follow the numbers area by area and rinse the fine brush between them. Save the drink, the strawberries and the orange slices for last, since the saturated reds and oranges cover the pale edges left nearby. Ice cubes and stars need the smallest brush. Keep the canvas flat while you work, and choose 40x50 cm or more if you want those details comfortable.

A frame lifts the greens and blues once the paint is dry. Our kitchen & food paint by numbers range holds the drinks and desserts, and the beach and sea paint by numbers designs strip the scene back to water and sky.

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.

What's in the kit

• Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the sangria glass, orange slices, strawberries and turquoise sea as numbered outlines.
• Paint:The pots hold the red of the sangria, the orange of the slices, the blue of the sea, the green of the bottle and the white of the ice cubes, ready to use without mixing.
• Brushes:Three of them: the fine brush for the rims of the orange slices, the medium for the strawberries, the wide one for the waves and the sky.
• Guide:The paper guide repeats the glass, the green bottle and the ice cubes so you can check a number before the paint goes down.
• Optional:The wooden stretcher bars keep the canvas flat while you work on the reflections, and they assemble by hand.
