In this painting & drawing, we do this wonderful colorful drawing of a dog’s head. The subject of animals is always a favorite subject of artists, new and advanced. Once you have completed this drawing, it will surely look good on any wall. To do this painting, you can download the master template which is in high resolution (1683 x 1806) and can be printed in large format. When doing this painting is not to follow the exact numbered regions since the smaller regions can take time.

Another tip in Paint by Numbers and when you want to improve your drawing and painting skills is to be experimental. What I mean is that accomplished artists love to use their own techniques that they have learnt. This means you can also apply your own techniques to the painting. For example, when you want to add your own colors or do something to the completed painting. I often go quickly over the painting to bring about the essence and not worry about the tiny details. In this way, you can look at the painting from a distance and see what needs improving. Remember when you apply your own strokes like this, you are doing something totally unique. This is where you can be really excel and open up your creativity. You can understand the nature of the colors and contrasting colors and how they are positioned. Then you can and add your own colors, rather than being too clinical in your approach. In this way, you can basically paint over the template according to your strokes. Why not give it a try!
