Paint by number or painting by numbers are kits having a board on which light markings to indicate areas to paint, and each area has a number and a corresponding numbered paint to use. The kits come with little compartmentalized boxes where the numbered color pigments are stored. The users are encouraged to wash the paintbrush every time a new numbered color is being used. The kits were invented, developed and marketed in 1950 by Max S. Klein, an engineer and owner of the Palmer Paint Company of Detroit, Michigan, and Dan Robbins, a commercial artist.
I like color by number because it is a way to unfocus an image. Color by number kits make it easier for the common person to paint, even if they are not an artist. I think that the smaller the sections are and the more colors there are in a piece make it more intricate and more appealing to the eyes. -Annabel Wilson
ReplyDeleteI like the 2nd picture which is the elephant painting. Even though it is color by number style, it is still very detailed and has distinctive characteristics. i also enjoy the different colors that are in the painting

I like the elephant painting because it made paint by numbers, which is normally seen as a simple painting, more complex by having patterns and movement in the paint.
ReplyDeleteI really like the second painting the best. I like the color scheme and the how detailed it is even though it is paint by number style.

I like how the scenery pictures are still look realistic even though they are paint by number style. Those paintings gave me ideas on what I need to do for my painting.
ReplyDeleteIt is an interesting way to paint. I like how the paints are still really cool and look realistic. My favorite one is the third one. Its realistic and really pretty.
ReplyDeleteI love how the elephant painting has so much detailing even without the blending of colors.The elephant painting is my favorite out of all of them because it shows how beautiful paint by numbers can be.

I really like the first painting because of how they did the contrast between light and dark and how the brush strokes make the whole painting look and come together.-eden hill
ReplyDeleteI like the one of the tree in the forest because it looks really good and it has lots of diversity in it. I like the little birds at the bottom they are my favorite.

I really like all of the paintings because i think that it's so cool that the artists can see the singular colors and create painted shapes that form a beautiful picture. I'd have to say that the second one is my favorite because of all of the vibrant colors used.

I really like the last picture of Jesus. I like how the picture looks so detailed even though there is no blending involved in the painting process.
