Beautiful and relaxing, extremely detailed.
This was so much fun and my first paint by numbers painting.It's extremely detailed which means there are small intricate areas to paint which creates this beautiful effect.I found it extremely relaxing and stress relieving. It is definitely a process so don't expect to complete this in one sitting. It took me awhile to finish it.The canvas came rolled up so no wrinkles or creases to deal with. The paint is good quality and I had more then enough paint, I took the picture of the paint pots after completion and there is plenty left over.Some of the lightest shades such as number 1, I had to touch up as I could still see the number underneath the paint, but it touched up nicely so no numbers are visible.I made several mistakes, including dropping the paint brush on it several times and smearing paint, but it was super easy to fix so don't worry about making mistakes.This was my first painting so I had to no experience and just learned as I went. The biggest tip I can give is to not me stingy with the paint. I initially started out extremely light handed but I found I had to go back over those areas. There is more then enough paint so no need to be light handed.I bought another of these as a mother's day gift for my mom, and she loves it as well!

Passion
This is my new passion. I retired two years ago and that's all I want to do. It's so relaxing I forget my husband is here 😆.

Beautiful!
This turned out to be beautiful. If you do paint by number (PBN) art make sure you check out YouTube for tips and tools to help make it a wonderful experience. I would suggest getting a good set of brushes, Gesso (clear matte), Liquitex flow additive and blue paint or green gorilla tape. Google for more info on those!

Love it
I just started painting this PBN painting. I love it so far. When I finish, in a couple weeks, I will update with a picture of the finished result.I ironed the backside to get the creases out, then I used tacks to pin it to a 16x20 canvas frame. So, I’m painting this on an desktop easel. I think it’s easier than painting laying flat. When I finish I might remove it and adhere it to white foam backer board or properly stretch it to a canvas frame. This is my first PBN painting so I’m still finding my way. I watched a few YouTube videos that really helped. I took the time to purchase and apply gesso to the canvas with really helps the paint stick to the canvas. I also purchased the fluid flow aid to dilute the paints instead of water. I love this new hobby for myself. I’m very happy with the quality of the paints, brushes and canvas of this kit. I highly recommend this if you’re searching of a creative way to pass time.

Relaxing and rewarding
This was my first. I really enjoyed getting into the project while listening to podcasts. The canvas was nice and I liked the thickness of the paint. I had to use the magnifying glass the entire time. Held it with my left hand and painted with right. Didn't really bother me. I thought it was quite detailed....not exactly a beginner painting project. I'm happy with the results. I'm ordering a customized one next.

Highly recommend
I'm addicted to these PBN. I really liked this one. I wouldn't recommend for beginners it has ALOT of detail. But it easy to do. Numbers were easy to see. The lines & numbers aren't dark easy to cover. Paint pigment was good quality. The canvas is smooth. I don't use the brushes that comes with these I have my own that I prefer. This one you will use a fine point brush. It comes with a picture & paper guidelines for back up. If I remember right it was rolled up. I always staples these to thick poster board. Makes it easier to do. Also little tip the white I usually mix with acrylic white paint from the store to help cover better. I leave the white areas for last. Just easier in my opinion.

Folded and rolled
It’s rolled up but was folded first so there is a crease some the top and bottom. The crease isn’t in the painting area but still needs to be ironed out.Updating to 4 stars. After working on this for two weeks, the creases are gone and it’s been so enjoyable.

Numbers are small
I've never done a paint by numbers so I didn't want to rate too harshly in case it's common knowledge that the numbering is tiny and/or I was stupid and didn't chose one appropriate for my skill set. I used reading glasses to see the numbers, but started to get motion sick. Even with the tiny paintbrush that came with it and the smallest brush from my standard paint supplies, the sections were just too small to stay in the lines. Maybe once it's all done the colors will blend enough to not matter.

Very therapeutic
I bought this thinking it was a already done painting. When I opened it, I almost sent it back. I am happy to say that I am glad I didn't, I have been so stressed lately and this give me something different to do and helps me relax, I am must say that I am pleasantly surprised as to how addictive this is and relaxing.

Beautiful end result!
This was my very first paint by numbers experience. I have no artistic background at all and just wanted to give this a try. I really enjoyed this one. Although I would recommend starting off with a painting that isn't as "detailed", I think it can work for beginners who are willing to spend that extra time. Loved the end result!

Kudos to seller: The canvas comes rolled up properly - not creased unlike almost every other canvas
The canvas came rolled up around a type of foam roller in a long box - so it wasn't creased at all unlike almost every other paint by numbers canvas I have had - so kudos to the seller / manufacturer. This is rare. Others I have had have been folded into 6 panels and you just can't get the creases out no matter what. Paint colours are good and true to picture too - again, unlike a lot of others. The seller gets 5 stars just for that.

Perfect for art lovers
This is my first paint by numbers purchase and I absolutely love it! It is very relaxing.I don't have the time to paint a large area at a time, so I use my free time to paint- whenever I can. It has been almost a month, and I love the progress I have made.Although, it is recommended to paint large areas first, I chose to paint the outlines of the trees and the boat, and its not given me any challenge so far.2 of my paint bottles are quite dry, and I tried to use it as is- (as you can tell from the uploaded picture that the white paint on the sand kind of ruined the painting)- but I read the recommendation of adding 2 drops of water to the dry paint before using; and I have yet to try this out!But overall- GREAT painting experience and VERY relaxing!I recommend this 10000%

Not easy to read or for beginners! TINY TINY numbers that you will need a magnifying glass to read!
I didnt even try to do this because it didnt look fun AT ALL! I have 20/20 vision and needed a magnifying glass just to read the numbers because they are SOOOO small. You would need extreme patience and a steady hand to complete this.
