Five Cacti

Most of this canvas is empty, and that's the point. Five potted plants in a row across the middle, cream space above and below them.

Which makes it the fastest kit we sell. The background is one large area in a single tone, and once it's down you're left with five small subjects that each take an evening at most.

The pots are simple shapes in terracotta and mustard. The plants are green with a few orange and red blooms, drawn flat with clean outlines and no shading to work out.

The number in the version name means how many pots of paint come in the box. Twenty-four is what this design calls for, since the whole illustration is built from solid areas of color that meet at hard edges. The 36-color version has twelve more, giving the greens a few extra steps so the ribbing on the cactus bodies separates a little further, but the design doesn't need them to look finished.

Good for a first kit, or for anyone who wants a paint by numbers project they can actually complete in a week. It hangs well in a kitchen, over a desk, or beside real plants.

We recommend the 24-color version for this design.

What's included:

• 16x20 in (40x50 cm) numbered canvas
• Available in a 24-color and a 36-color version
• Acrylic paints and brushes included
• Choose rolled canvas or pre-stretched on a frame

No experience is required. Every canvas is clearly numbered, guiding you step by step. Thousands of first-time painters have completed their first artwork with our kits – and loved the result.

You'll not only enjoy the process but also experience the "wow effect" when you see your finished painting come to life.

Everything you need arrives in one box:

• Pre-printed numbered canvas (your chosen size)
• Acrylic paint set (24 or 36 colors – always enough to finish, and we'll send extra for free if you ever run out)
• 3 premium artist brushes (different sizes for details and larger areas)
• Reference color chart & printed guide
• Step-by-step instructions
• Optional: Pre-stretched frame (ready to hang)

24 or 36 colors — which version?

It's simply how many different shades the design is painted with. The 24-color version has a clean, classic look and is a little easier to paint. The 36-color version adds extra shades for smoother blending and a more realistic finish. Both come with all the paint you need to complete your canvas — the number is about shades, not how much paint.
