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

A vintage Côte d'Azur poster paint by numbers kit: a Mediterranean bay at sunset
The poster shows a bay at sunset. Houses with red roofs step down in terraces to the turquoise sea, a white sailboat sits on the water and palm trees frame each side. A coastal road with retro cars runs along the shore. The orange sky sets off the light blue and pale pink, and the Côte d'Azur lettering gives the picture the look of an old French tourist advert. The dominant colours are turquoise, orange, dark green and beige. If the sailboat is what draws you, we also have boats and seascape paint by numbers.
Tips for painting this design
Begin with the orange sky and the beige areas at the top, then fill the sea in turquoise. The red roofs follow the terrace outlines, so use the fine brush there. Paint the dark green palm trees after the background so the edges stay clean. The sailboat, the retro cars and the lettering are the smallest zones. From 40x40 cm upwards the numbers on these elements are easier to read.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 12 sizes, from 15x15 to 70x80 cm. Choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours: fewer colours mean simpler blends in the sky and sea, more colours allow finer shading. Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size. We dispatch within 48 hours. For other retro travel posters, browse our vintage paint by numbers collection.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for the vintage Côte d'Azur poster?
Choose 40x40 cm or larger if you want comfortable room for the retro cars, the sailboat and the Côte d'Azur lettering. The kit runs from 15x15 to 70x80 cm in 12 sizes, so smaller formats suit a quicker project with tighter numbers.
Are the village details difficult to paint?
The level of detail is medium. Large areas such as the orange sky and the turquoise sea are easy to fill, while the terraced roofs, retro cars and lettering have small zones. The fine brush supplied in the kit handles those parts.
How long does it take and how many colours can I choose?
Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size. You can choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas or with a wooden frame to assemble. We dispatch within 48 hours.
Who is this design a good gift for?
It suits anyone who likes retro decor or the south of France. The orange sky, turquoise sea and old tourist advert lettering give a clear subject, and the kit comes with canvas, numbered paints and three brushes.
