- Intermediate: several elements or colour gradients, with smaller areas. It takes a little more care and a fine brush in places.

A tennis player serving paint by numbers to paint yourself
This paint by numbers for adults shows a player in action on a clay court. The racket is raised, the ball hangs above her head, and orange dust kicks up under her feet. The background shows the net and the court lines. The main colours are the ochre orange of the clay, the white of the outfit, the dark green of the net and a sky blue at the top of the painting. The style is expressive, with visible strokes in the dust and on the ground. The square format puts the player at the centre. The detail is medium: the outlines are sharp on the figure and looser in the background.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the light areas: the white outfit and the ball, to keep the outlines sharp. Then paint the clay in ochre orange, varying the tones to bring out the kicked-up dust. The dark green of the net needs a steady hand on the straight lines. Save the sky blue for last, at the top of the painting. Choose a 30x40 cm size or larger: the medium detail of the player and the racket needs a little room to stay clear.
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 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
What's in the kit
Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines and numbers of the player serving, the raised racket and the suspended ball.
Paint:The numbered acrylic pots cover the ochre orange, terracotta, white, dark green and sky blue of the court.
Brushes:The fine brush is for the court lines and the net, the medium for the player, the large for the clay.
Guide:The paper guide lets you check the numbers for the orange dust areas and the shadow on the ground.
Optional:As an option, the wooden frame to assemble stretches the serving on clay canvas, otherwise it arrives rolled.
Without frame
The canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You paint it flat and frame it afterwards if you wish.
With frame
Wooden stretcher bars to assemble stretch the canvas. You paint on a taut surface and hang the painting on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this tennis player?
A 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm works well to keep the face and racket clear. The 20x30 cm is still possible for a quick try, but the dust strokes will be tighter.
Are the face and racket details difficult to paint?
The level is medium. The face and racket need precision, while the clay and background are painted in large areas. Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
Who is this paint by numbers kit a good gift for?
It suits a tennis player or a sports fan who wants to paint a picture of their hobby. The square format hangs easily in an office or a living room.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
The medium detail of this tennis player serving stays manageable. Follow the tips on the page: start with the white outfit and the ball, then the ochre orange clay, the dark green net and the sky blue at the top. The paper guide helps you check the numbers for each area.
How do I deal with dried paint?
The numbered acrylic pots are ready to use. Close each pot after use and work area by area, following the order on the page: white outfit and ball, ochre orange clay, dark green net, sky blue. The paper guide is for checking the numbers, not for setting a painting order.
