Review on Romantic Love Autumn DIY Oil Painting Kit - Colour Talk Paint By Numbers - 16x20 inch - For Adults and Kids by Angela Rodriguez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fun project and relatively inexpensive

As other reviewers have said, this is just canvas, paints, and brushes. Frameless. The colors mostly do not match the advertised image. The leaves of the trees and where you see black in the picture are almost all the same color. This is my first painting by numbers and it was a good experience. You need a lot of patience as there are many small areas that can be painted in different colors (look carefully at the leaves). The numbers are clearly printed on the canvas and, depending on the paint used, are mostly covered with the first layer of paint. Some lighter colors will require multiple coats before the numbers and lines are covered. The paint can get a little sticky at times, but as another reviewer said, just add some water and you're good to go. The brushes that come with the kit are fine for completing the painting, but you'll definitely be better off buying your own brushes for the details. I will say that although the colors do not match the advertised photo, it is still a beautiful and romantic image. I've included photos showing the progress of the project and what the finished product looks like before and after framing (I bought the frame recommended in the Q&A section). Note: I changed the colors for the lovers in the photo. Originally, women's clothes were mint green and black, while men's clothes were mostly all black with an orange leaf in between? (I couldn't tell you what that orange tint was supposed to represent). In general, I didn't like it, I changed it. You can see the color change if you compare the first photos to the finished product.

Pros
  • Finished size: 20 x 16 inches
Cons
  • Long delivery time
