"My girlfriend got me this as a joke because I'm the least artistic person alive. It's like meditation but you actually have something to show for it. It's in my office now and people ask where I got the painting."

"Something quiet to come home to. Now my partner and I paint together on our days off"

"I sat with it for three hours and didn't touch my phone once, which hasn't happened in I don't know how long. It's above my bed now."
Hi! You may have seen me in the ads that brought you here. I've always looked for an escape from stress, and painting was the one thing that gave me it. Only problem? I was never any good at it. So I found paint by numbers. But every kit made it harder than it should be: never enough paint, colors so watery you'd need three coats, one cheap brush, and a canvas that never turned out like the one on the box. So I fixed all of it. Enough paint that won't run dry, colors that cover the first time, brushes that reach the tiny sections, and a finished piece that actually looks like the art you fell for. My favorite paintings are in the Destinations collection — every one lets me imagine a place I want to visit, or paint a memory from somewhere I've already been. That's the whole point. Its my time to slow down, unplug, and end up with a beautiful painting on my wall with no experience needed!
Shop NowFrequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you start painting.
Will mine actually look good if I've never painted before?
Every section is numbered. Every paint pot is numbered. You match them — the system does the artistic thinking. Most first-timers are genuinely surprised by how good theirs turns out.
How long does a kit take to finish?
A Small takes most people 3–5 hours. A Medium runs 6–10. Most people split it across a few evenings — it becomes the thing they look forward to after a long day.
How difficult is it to Paint by Numbers?
Not hard at all. You match each numbered area to its color and fill it in. No experience needed — just a little patience. Kids can do it too.
Is the quality worth the price?
Real cotton/linen canvas, high-pigment paint that covers in one coat, brushes that hold their tip start to finish. You'll feel the difference the moment you unroll the canvas.
What if I run out of paint?
Every kit comes with more than you need. If you ever run short on a color, reach out — we'll send a replacement at no charge.
What are the positive effects of Paint by Numbers?
It's a proven way to calm down and refocus. People report less stress and anxiety, longer attention spans, sharper concentration and memory, and a real sense of accomplishment when the piece is done.
Leonardo da Vinci invented it. He used to hand pre-numbered canvases to his apprentices so they could fill in sections while he focused on the harder parts.
That's where paint by numbers came from - eventually. In 1951, a commercial artist named Dan Robbins took the idea, packaged it for regular people, and launched the first kit out of Detroit. Critics called it an insult to real art. By 1954, Americans had bought 12 million of them.
Even Eisenhower's staff was painting them in the White House.
Seventy-five years later, it still does what it was built to do - turning anyone with a brush into someone who made the art on their wall.
