The principle of painting by numbers:

For a change from colouring and for an impeccable result, painting by numbers is a creative hobby that will occupy young and old alike and offers a moment of relaxation and artistic expression. Each colour corresponds to a number present on each area of the picture to be painted. These areas are marked by outlines, sometimes gilded, which must not be exceeded: young artists will see an illustration or decoration appear with each brushstroke, worthy of the greatest artists! Young creatives will be busy and focused for long periods of time, in order to bring their creations to life. They will be proud and happy to show their favourite paintings to the whole family! It will take about 6 hours to complete this beautiful painting.

The watercolour paint covers well and is odourless. With a fast drying time, it gives a poetic finish to children's paintings. The brush-pen with water reservoir is very practical, no need to have a glass of water that needs regular changing to have a clean brush!
