Difficulty level : Intermediate
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.
Mickey and Minnie on a Bench Facing the Sea Paint by Numbers: the scene
Mickey and Minnie sit back to back on a wooden bench, facing the sea. Behind them a sun shaped like Mickey's head rests on the horizon, and the sky runs from pale pink just above the water to deep red at the top of the canvas, with purple where the two meet. Blue waves fill the middle band, sand the lower part, and the two black silhouettes hold the centre of the picture. The portrait format stacks sun, bench and sand on one vertical line, so the scene fits a narrow wall. This kit sits in our Valentine's Day paint by numbers range.
Tips for painting this design
Paint the sky first: the pale pinks near the horizon, then the deeper reds at the top, keeping the purple band narrow so the change between them stays smooth. Leave the Mickey-shaped sun until that sky is dry, because the ears are a tight curve and the fine brush draws a cleaner outline on a dry surface. Mickey and Minnie's black areas take one coat with the fine brush; a second pass softens the edges of the ears and the muzzle. Do the bench before the sand so sand colour does not drag onto the wood. A 30x40 cm or 40x50 cm canvas is enough for this level of detail, and 40x60 cm gives the gradient more room.
Sizes, colours and painting time
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 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
What the kit contains
Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines and numbers for Mickey, Minnie, the bench and the Mickey-head sun on the beach.
Paint:The numbered acrylic pots are ready to use and hold the pink, red, blue, purple, black and yellow of the characters, the sky and the sea. You get 24, 36 or 48 colours depending on the option.
Brushes:Three brushes: fine for the faces and the sun's ears, medium for the bench, wide for the sky and the sea.
Guide:The paper chart repeats the numbers for the sun, the waves and the characters, so you can check a shade before opening the pot.- Frame: Choose rolled canvas or the wooden frame to assemble, which lets you stretch the canvas before you start painting.
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 picture on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this Mickey and Minnie on a Bench Facing the Sea paint by numbers kit?
30x40 cm covers the silhouettes, the sun and the bench with room for the faces. 40x50 cm and 40x60 cm give the sky gradient more space, and 50x70 cm or 60x80 cm suit a wide wall. On a 20x30 cm canvas the faces and the sun's ears need a very fine brush.
Are Mickey and Minnie's faces difficult to paint?
They are the smallest part of the canvas. Paint them last, with the fine brush and thin coats, and keep the black of the ears and muzzle to one pass so the outline stays sharp. The sky, the sea and the sand are medium areas you can fill with the medium and wide brushes.
Is this kit a good Valentine's gift?
It suits an adult or teenager who wants both characters in one scene, and a couple on a bench fits the occasion. Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size, so it covers several evenings. The finished portrait hangs in a bedroom or living room.
How do I use the paint by numbers kit?
Paint the sky first, pale pinks near the horizon and deeper reds at the top. Leave the Mickey-shaped sun until the sky is dry, then outline it with the fine brush. Do the black silhouettes in one coat, then the bench, then the sand.
