Canvas size
Which size do most people choose?
Most people start with 16" × 20". A larger canvas fits more of the subject.

20" × 24" A couple, or a pet with more detail.
24" × 32" A family group or a landscape.
Colors
What's the difference?
Same photo. More colors split it into smaller numbered areas and add more paint pots.
24 colors Larger areas. Fewer pots.
36 colors More of the small shifts.
48 colors Smallest areas. Takes longer.

The one you keep opening

Some photos never get a frame. You open them when the day was too long, then close them again.

Still becoming itself

Still becoming itself

Half the face is color. The rest is the outline you have already looked at a hundred times.

The part you can do tonight

The part you can do tonight

One small color is enough. You do not have to finish the person in a single sitting.

Where your hand goes

Where your hand goes

The cloth is already marked. You only have to stay with it.

Left where you will see it

Left where you will see it

Not buried in a camera roll. Sitting out, where the morning hits it.

Questions about your Custom kit

Choose your photo, palette and finish before ordering.

What comes with my Custom kit?

Your kit contains one pre-numbered linen canvas based on your photo, a pre-mixed acrylic paint set in your selected 24-, 36- or 48-color palette, three nylon brushes, a small reference image, two screws and two wall hooks. Brush color and handle design may vary by batch.

Which Custom sizes, color counts and finishes can I choose?

Choose 40 × 50, 50 × 60 or 60 × 80 cm, listed as approximately 16 × 20, 20 × 24 or 24 × 32 inches. Each size offers 24, 36 or 48 colors and No Frame or Ready-to-Hang. These are Custom choices; standard kits have their own size and Type options.

How should I choose between 24, 36 and 48 colors?

24 colors gives you fewer paint pots to track. The 36- and 48-color options provide larger pre-mixed palettes. Compare the selected price, canvas size and photo before choosing. All three use number matching; more colors cannot restore a blurry face or missing detail in the original photo.

What is the difference between No Frame and Ready-to-Hang?

No Frame is a rolled canvas. Ready-to-Hang is pre-stretched on wooden bars; paint it and let it dry before hanging. Neither includes a decorative outer frame. For No Frame, plan a flat painting support and a later mounting method. Our framing guide explains the choices.

What makes a photo suitable for a Custom kit?

Choose a sharp, well-lit image with a clear main subject. For people or pets, keep faces or eyes easy to see and leave space for cropping. A close portrait or clear focal point is easier to assess than a distant, crowded scene. Follow the subject page's advice or the Custom photo guide.

How do I turn my photo into a kit?

Choose a Custom product, select its size, color count and finish, and upload your photo when ordering. You receive a physical numbered-canvas kit to paint yourself. Check the photo and options before checkout; start with the Custom photo guide or Custom paint by numbers kit.

Are the images AI-assisted? Can I choose an entirely AI-free kit?

Custom product pages use AI-assisted lifestyle and finished-artwork illustrations, not customer submissions or exact previews. Your kit is based on your uploaded photo and selected options. We do not make a blanket AI-free promise for the design or production process. If this matters to your purchase, contact us about the specific kit before ordering.

Do I need experience, and what can I learn?

No drawing experience is needed: match each canvas number to its paint pot. You can practice brush control, edges and paint handling, while drawing and composition remain separate skills. Start with our beginner painting guide; Muse Guide offers painting help and ideas.

How long will it take to finish a kit?

Time varies with size, detail, your pace and session length. A 40 × 50 cm Custom kit with 24 colors has no fixed completion time; color count alone does not describe the work. Plan several sessions and, for a gift you paint yourself, allow time for drying too.

Can I order this Custom kit as a gift?

Yes. Choose a meaningful photo and check the size, palette, finish and delivery address. Give the kit for the recipient to paint, or paint it yourself first. Ready-to-Hang still needs painting. Read the Shipping Policy and contact us about a fixed gift date before ordering.

How long will my order take, and how will I get tracking?

Read the current Shipping Policy for processing and delivery information. When tracking is available, it goes to the checkout email address. Timing depends on the order and destination. For help with an order or a fixed gift date, contact us with the order number or the kit you are considering.

Can I cancel or return a Custom order?

The Custom cancellation and refund window is 24 hours after ordering. Email help@diyartmuse.com within that window and wait for written confirmation. Afterward, a kit made from your photo cannot be canceled, returned or refunded for a change of mind.

Remedies for a faulty, damaged, incomplete or wrong item, or one materially different from the agreed image or description, still apply. Non-waivable consumer rights remain unaffected. Read the current Refund Policy for full terms and reporting instructions.

Interesting Neat Wriggly Lines

This is the first time I had to paint nothing but lines. If my hand wobbled and I got a blob of paint in the wrong place. I used a nail file to remove the blob. That’s my tip of the day.

Amazing !

Absolutely really enjoyed bring my photograph to life . I received it as a Christmas gift from my daughter, It’s astounding to see it looks like the actual photo. The quality of the paints was spot on and although I needed to add some finishing touches- their eyes needed bring to life and some small detail on collars needed altering. But that’s what makes it unique. Well worth the money.

Personalized Paint

Ordered personalized picture I’m happy with result, I give 4 stars as I received one color dry which I couldn’t use, I requested replacement which I received exactly on time luckily there was 2 of them as one was also dry. Most of the colors I painted twice for better result as I had only one for each color some of them was not enough so I had to replace with my own colors. Overall paint looks nice.
Also delivery was from China and waited for 2 weeks. Information on the website not accurate,
