Place the provided mat on the table. Unroll the canvas and place it on the base mat. The number on the canvas indicates which color to paint with. Select the area to paint and open the paint cup with the corresponding number. Mix the paint lightly and if it seems too thick, you can add 1-2 drops of water to the paint cup. Do not add too much water, so that the paint does not become watery, but covers the image well. In the beginning, you can test on the base mat before you start painting on the canvas. The set includes 3 brushes of different density. Choose the appropriate one and color until the number is not visible. If the number is still visible after drying, repaint those places. Rinse the brush and dry with hand paper before you start painting with the next color. Always close the lid of the paint cup when you are finished to prevent the paint from drying out. Once the entire image is painted, allow the image to dry thoroughly
