About this design
★★★★★ Israëls' Children of the Sea as Color by Number
Jozef Israëls' moving Children of the Sea as Color by Number. Color the two children on the beach and the soft gray sea into an atmospheric scene from the Hague School.
Why Color by Number?
Color by Number is wonderfully relaxing and surprisingly simple: each area has a number that corresponds to a numbered marker. Choose how many colors you want — 24 (Essential), 36 (Detailed), or 48 (Premium): the more colors, the finer the details and color transitions. Without experience, you can create a painting that truly resembles the original.

What size and how many colors?
Choose your size from 30×40 cm to 60×80 cm — larger sizes allow for more detail and a more imposing final result. Combine with 24, 36, or 48 colors as desired: more colors means more refinement and softer transitions.

Number of colours: the more colours, the more nuance and the smaller the areas. Up to 20 colours is calm, up to 40 colours the most detailed.
Do I use paint or markers?
Numbered markers. They’re mess-free, there’s nothing to mix and you can stop whenever you like. Ideal for the kitchen table.
What’s the difference between up to 20, 30 and 40 colours?
More colours give more nuance in skin, light and shadow, with smaller areas. Up to 20 colours is the calmest.
