Rescue Boat on the Waves Paint by Numbers

A rescue boat on the waves paint by numbers picture to paint yourself

This PAW Patrol paint by numbers shows an orange and white rescue boat cutting through a blue sea. The yellow sun sits in the top right corner of the picture. Turquoise and white waves surround the hull, with splashes at the front. A lifebuoy is fixed to the side. The light blue sky stays plain across the top half of the canvas. The style follows cartoon outlines, with flat colour and clean lines. The areas are medium sized, with no complex shading. The square format puts the boat in the centre and leaves little room for the background. Each area carries a number that matches a paint pot.

Tips for painting this design

Start with the light blue sky and the yellow sun, as these are the largest areas and the easiest to cover. Then move on to the orange hull, keeping the edges clean along the black outlines. The turquoise and white waves need care: alternate the two shades without mixing them, and let them dry before going over a neighbouring area. The lifebuoy and the splashes are the smallest elements, so keep the fine brush for those. A 30x30 cm or 40x40 cm size suits this level of detail.

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.

What's in the kit

• Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines of the rescue boat, the foaming waves and the sun in the blue sky.
• Paint:The numbered acrylic pots contain the blue, yellow, white, orange and turquoise seen on the design.
• Brushes:The fine brush is for the water splashes and the lifebuoy details, the medium for the waves, the large for the sky.
• Guide:The paper chart of the design lets you check the numbers for the boat, the waves and the sun.
• Optional:As an option, the wooden frame to assemble stretches the printed canvas so you can paint the boat and waves. You can also choose it already mounted on its frame, ready to hang.
