3 days to go, and we’re getting darker! This one took barely any time at all – there’s not as much dark blue on this picture as I initially thought! Things I’ve learnt today: 3 days until my butterflies take wing 😀

I’m beginning to get really happy with how this is looking now. The darker colours are really making everything pop. Things I’ve learnt today: I just noticed that well over half of the canvas is covered in paint now. The smaller detail bits will probably … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 18

Day 17 is the first of the blue – and we’re finally getting those finishing touches to the cats wings. Things I’ve learnt today: I’m going to be quite sad when this project is finished. I’ll probably have to learn how to paint properly or … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 17

Day 16 brings us the last of the brown, which I am glad for – that means we’re finally getting to the deep vibrant blues that should finish this painting off! Also, since the moon is now finished – I am mooning you, internet. Things … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 16

The final product of this may be somewhat … interesting. Things … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 15

Day 14 is definitely orange. Still doesn’t seem like it fits, and I’m really looking forward to getting to the blue palette in the hopes that this looks closer to the actual advertised image. That said – this cat is beginning to look like it … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 14

Well, today has been just peachy. Seriously – colour 13 is peach. 😀 I’m really hoping this looks better when it is surrounded by some darker colours, as it doesn’t seem to fit with the overall scheme to me. Things I’ve learnt today: That cloud … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 13

We’re back to super pale colours, so I’m slightly worried that my phone won’t have picked up colour 12 – a light yellow. Things I’ve learnt today: Yup, yellow barely shows up. Fear not! The colours start getting bolder over the next few days!

Day 11 brings us what I believe is the last of the purple. Tomorrow takes us into more yellowish/brownish hues. Still, I think this purple has really started to make this painting look like an actual something. The flowers and wings are really starting to … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 11

We’re getting back to darker purples now. The cloud at the bottom is only a few days away from being finished at this point! That cat is really beginning to pop! Things I’ve learnt today:   Cats probably shouldn’t pop. Day 9 managed to sneak … Continue reading Wicksy Paints by Numbers – Day 10
