How it works
- Choose the pictures — flowers, animals, Christmas or Halloween.

- Print and colour with fine pens or pencils; the coloured version follows for reference.
- With two pictures and answers enabled, select the second answer page to print the colour key for picture 2.
Frequently asked questions
- What makes it suitable for adults?
- Many small spaces, more colours and a patterned background — a quiet hour of colouring rather than five minutes.
- Which pens work best?
- Fine felt tips or coloured pencils; the spaces are small.
- Can I print it larger?
- Choose US Letter or A4; for bigger spaces, print with “fit to page” on A3 or tabloid.
- Can I make one from my own photo?
- Yes — the paint by numbers generator turns a photo into numbered areas.
- Is anything uploaded?
- No. The pictures are made in your browser.
