Amazing images are those that invoke emotion and tell the story of a person. The best portraits are those that truly capture the essence of the subject.

Do you have Abstract and Modern templates?

Yes, we do! Abstract painting is not an easy art; but with our abstract paint by numbers, you can practice and learn the basics of abstract painting, quickly and easily.

The beginning of Abstract Art can be traced back to Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, and Cubism movements; when artists realized that art can be nonrepresentational. You do not always have to paint an apple as an apple. Instead, you can use color, shapes, lines, and patterns to represent an apple. Essentially, Abstract Art is separating from any literal, representational reference points that make the art. It is art in free form.

On the other hand, modern art is an artist’s portrayal of a subject as it exists in the real world based on his own unique perspective. It is an art as an artist sees it. Our modern paint by numbers templates capture the real essence of modern art as expressed by their artist.
