Description
Art Nouveau Egyptian Woman with a Black Cat Paint by Numbers Kit
This canvas is pure ornament, in the best possible way. A woman with a dark bob and an Egyptian style gold headdress stands in profile with her eyes closed, calm and composed. A wide gold collar inlaid with symbol patterns covers her chest, gold bands stack up her arms, and tall white feathers rise behind her head. One hand reaches out to stroke a sleek black cat with golden eyes and a jewelled collar. Everywhere else, the cream background is filled edge to edge with intricately drawn ornament: foliage, architecture, scrolling patterns and tiny figures.
This is a canvas for someone who loves fine, precise work. The black hair and the black cat are the two largest dark shapes and give the composition its punch, while the gold jewellery is dozens of small bright details that come together to look genuinely metallic. The background ornament is the patient part, made of countless thin shapes and lines, and it is what gives the finished piece its richness.
What Is Included in the Kit
- One pre-printed canvas with numbered sections, sized 16×20 inches
- 24 numbered acrylic paint pots with blacks, golds, creams and stone tones
- Three professional detail brushes for the ornament, jewellery and feathers
- A colour reference sheet showing the completed artwork
- Printed instructions suitable for complete beginners
Sizes and Options
Available as a 16×20 inch canvas with a 24 colour palette. Choose No Frame – Rolled if you would like to frame the finished piece yourself, or Pre-Stretched Frame if you would rather begin right away and hang it as soon as it dries.
Decorative Elegance With a Black Cat
The finished canvas looks like a gilt framed illustration from a vintage book, and the black and gold palette makes it feel very grown up. It suits a bedroom, dressing room, living room, study or hallway, and it looks superb beside brass, velvet and dark wood. A wonderful gift for cat lovers and anyone drawn to ornate decorative art.
