Paint by numbers kits allow you to develop your creativity by yourself. Van Gogh in his time produced about 2100 artworks in his short career as a painter and is one of the most famous painters of the western world. The last Van Gogh I remember being auctioned was in 2017 for a staggering 66.3 million dollars. Why am I talking about Van Gogh? Well, that is because Van Gogh probably stands as the best example of a self-taught master of the art of painting. In fact, in his early days, Van Gogh was terrible with a brush, considered to be of no natural talent. However, Van Gogh taught himself by first doing some still image artworks and copying the existing artworks of his time. Copying the work of others let him perfect his brushwork and use of colors.

10- Master your brushes
You may know your canvas, you know your brushes and you may know your paint, but without a controlled steady hand that does not slip at the edges, you can never excel at the art of painting. Painting is a fine art and every stroke of the brush defines the final picture that will come alive. Therefore, teaching your hand and developing your motor skills is of prime importance. Paint by numbers canvas is marked like a blueprint with defined boundaries and you need to fill in a numbered color to the specific section, which can be of varied shapes. Filling in given defined areas lets you practice and develop motor skills and brushwork.
