How to Get Started
The Custom Painting By Numbers Landscape canvas is mapped with numbers, each one matching a color. All you do is pick a spot, dip your brush, and begin. There’s no right way to go, some people follow one color across the canvas, others take it section by section. It’s simple to follow and easy to return to whenever you have a quiet moment.
What’s Inside the Kit
Everything you need to start is included. Each piece is made to match the photo you send, so you can jump right into painting without any prep.
- A pre-numbered canvas based on your custom photo
- Full set of numbered acrylic paints (no mixing needed)
- Three brushes in different sizes for fine and broad strokes
- A printed reference image of your portrait
- Wall-hanging hardware to display your work when you’re done

A Process You Can Sink Into
There’s no noise in this process. Just the quiet rhythm of paint meeting canvas. As the sections fill in, the scene begins to return, gradually, like memory. You don’t have to rush, or second-guess anything. The Custom Painting By Numbers Landscape kit steps are simple, but the focus it asks from you is real. It becomes the kind of project you look forward to coming back to. And by the time you’re halfway through, you’re not thinking about finishing, you’re just enjoying the time it gives you.
Choosing the Right Photo
A good painting starts with a good photo. Use the guide below to help you pick the right image for the best possible result.

✔️ Best Photo Types:
- Clear and focused images (no blur or motion)
- Faces and features fully visible, not cropped
- Bright, even lighting (natural daylight is ideal)
- Close or mid-range shots, details should be easy to see
- Simple, clean backgrounds that don’t compete with the subject
✖️ Avoid These:
- Subjects too far away from the camera
- Blurry, pixelated, or low-quality photos
- Harsh lighting, strong shadows, or overexposure
- Photos with filters or heavy editing
- Faces blocked by hair, hats, or objects
A View That Stuck With You
People paint all kinds of places: rooftops, forests, garden sheds, open roads, balconies with nothing but sky. Some are quiet, some are dramatic, and some are so ordinary they’ve become personal. Whatever you choose, it reflects something about you, where you’ve been, what you’ve noticed, or what you miss. That’s what makes the experience feel grounded from the start. You’re not just painting a view. You’re holding onto one.
Frequently Asked Questions

This is the house I grew up in, and painting it brought back so many memories. Every section felt like a little piece of my childhood. Thank you guys!

I’ve always been fond of architecture, and this scene just felt like it was begging to be painted. I’m so glad I went for it, it turned out to be such a rewarding piece to work on.

I’m a pretty active person, love hiking, photography, and a bit of art too. I’ve never been good at painting though… but with Custom Painting By Numbers Landscape, that’s no longer an issue! It felt great turning one of my own photos into something that actually looks like real art.

Totally cheated, didn’t take the photo, just loved the view and really wanted to paint it. No regrets. 10/10.

A hike I took last spring. The snowy peaks and the way they looked in the water took me back to that calm time. For me, it’s more than just a painting.

One of my favorite places to visit, full of light and calm. Turning the photo into a painting let me slow down and really enjoy every detail again, definitely worth the time and focus.

I took this photo while visiting a quiet village that completely stole my heart. Painting it brought back the calm and charm of that moment, worth every hour spent.

Paddled out early one morning and snapped this shot, now it’s one of my favorite things I’ve painted. Simple, peaceful, and totally worth it.
