iWhat does this level mean?
- Beginner: one large subject and big areas to paint, little detail. Ideal for a first canvas.
- Intermediate: several elements or colour gradients, with smaller areas. It takes a little more care and a fine brush in places.
- Advanced: a busy scene with many small areas and small faces to paint with a fine brush. For experienced painters, or with patience.
Tip: on a larger canvas the areas are bigger and easier to paint.
Tiger head paint by numbers kit: stripes, fangs and turquoise swirls
The centre of this portrait canvas holds a tiger's head, mouth slightly open to show the fangs. The coat is orange with black stripes, the muzzle shades to beige and the whiskers are drawn in fine lines. Behind the animal, decorative swirls and circular motifs run in turquoise and water green. The stripes and whiskers call for a steady hand, while the swirls can be painted more freely. Expect around 20 to 40 hours depending on the size you pick. The turquoise against the orange coat gives strong contrast on a plain wall in a living room or hallway. You can find more big cats in our lion paint by numbers and tiger designs.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the large flat areas of the turquoise and water green background, then paint the beige of the muzzle. Leave the black stripes and whiskers for the end and use the fine brush, which keeps them crisp over the dry colours. The fangs and the outline of the eyes need the most care: load only a little paint on the tip. Choose 40x50 cm or larger so the swirls and the coat have space; at 20x30 cm the stripes feel crowded. If you would like to build up to this level first, an easy paint by numbers kit makes a good warm-up.

The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a kit with 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 20 to 40 h depending on the size.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this tiger head?
Choose 40x50 cm or larger. At that size the stripes, whiskers and circular swirls have enough space for the fine brush. 20x30 cm works as a trial, but the whiskers and swirl motifs become hard to make out and the stripes feel crowded.
Is this design difficult to paint?
The level is advanced. The coat stripes, fangs and whiskers need the fine brush and clean outlines, while the swirl background has larger areas you can paint more freely. Allow around 20 to 40 hours depending on the size you choose.
Who is this tiger canvas a good gift for?
It suits an adult who likes big cats and decorative patterns, or someone who already paints and wants a detailed subject. The kit includes the linen canvas, the numbered acrylic paints and three brushes, so the recipient only needs an easel if they want one.
What options can I choose for this tiger kit?
You can pick one of 12 sizes from 15x15 to 70x80 cm and 24, 36 or 48 colours. The canvas comes rolled without a frame, or with a wooden frame to assemble. Orders are dispatched within 48 hours.
