I got a paint by number picture for Christmas last year of our dog Kyrka. we all painted some of it and it is now framed and on our wall, it is such a wonderful memory of when we were all together.
I have now ordered some for my friends and other family members for this Christmas.
Wonderful service
I have had several pictures from color and calm, always of our pet dogs. My wife is the artistic one in the family,
we have been delighted with every one we have had. The service is prompt efficient and friendly and have recommended it to several of our friends. It is a unique service to transform a photograph into a unique painting. I was also saddened that it is closing down
Highly recommended and very addictive
Excellent communication and really quick delivery....order came as described...highly recommend and the painting can be done by anyone...just pick up your brush and get painting
Just ordered my 5th pet painting
Just ordered my 5th pet painting. Very happy with previous outcomes. Good canvas and although a few pots of paint had dried up, they were usable once water was added. A relaxing hobby with good results.
Dry paints, no help from customer service.
Me and my wife purchased for each other as a gift. The kits are nice, however, customer service was awful when we needed them.
Some of the paints in the kit went dry. We emailed customer support.
At first, they told us to mix water - we explained this didn't work.
Then they offered to partially refund us to buy our own paints.
When we said no - please just send us new paints - there was no reply. We sent several followup emails - all were ignored.
It's unfortunate and we'll pursue a chargeback on our credit card because of this.
I started painting back in December…
I started painting back in December 2020 I was looking for something to help with my mental health, (due to lock down!!!) I love art (but not very good at it!!) I needed something to occupy my mind and to concentrate, I found color n calm, I have just completed my 13th painting (and one on the way!!) I absolutely love these with a passion, just upload a photo of anything you want, easy to follow instructions, the guys are very helpful if you make a mistake, pay and they send..... Takes roughly about 2/3weeks to arrive, and the end results are phenomenal😍😍
Package nowhere to be seen
I ordered 2 kits 3 weeks ago and I am still waiting for delivery. It hasn’t even left yet « still being process » and customer service hasn’t been much help ! And unfortunetely this was supposed to be a gift for a birthday in a few days
This is the 6th paint-by-number kit…
This is the 6th paint-by-number kit that I've purchased. It started during the Covid lockdown and got hooked. I think it's so cool to be able to do a painting of a family member or pet. Color and Calm make it so easy to do. and I've learned that its ok if you outside the lines a little here and there, it will still turn out great!
ORDER NO 2!!
THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IVE ORDERED FROM COLOR AND CALM THE FIRST WAS BRILLIANT I THOROUGHLY ENJOYED IT AND LOOKING FORWARD TO RECEIVING MY LATEST PACKAGE..SO EASY TO ORDER AND ANY INFO NEEDED IS QUICKLY SUPPLIED.
Awful company
Awful company. Paint came dry and they would not do anything about it. They said go to the store and buy some paint that matches. I have a painting almost done except the dried colors. Disappointing. Never use this company. Chinese scam.

I really enjoy painting the paint by number projects. I have selected family portrait to paint of my deceased parents and find it emotional and calming at the same time. Color and calm does an exceedingly job in capturing every detail of the picture.

I have bought 6 kits and love each and everyone of them. Love painting them as it relaxes and as the name says it CALM me. Recommend highly.
I Love your Paint kits
I Love your Paint kits, they are so life like. My family and friends are just amazed when they see the finished product, and I Love Love doing them, for me it is so calming, I have done 13 of them and plan on doing more!!!!
Some of the paints are dry
Some of the paints are dry. It would be so helpful to store images and paints so that we could reorder the paint and complete our masterpiece! I love the clarity of the prints and the awesome outcome! Please consider helping out the customers with the dry paint situation!!
Problem with solid paint - poor customer service
Received this as a Christmas present and love the idea - unfortunately one of the paint colours is completely solid on opening for the first time. I emailed them due to their statement on the website that they will replace or refund if any problems - I understand that these things happen.
Unfortunately the response I got suggested it was my fault for not using the paints quickly enough (ordered on 10 Dec 2021, so likely received around 20th Dec, then I received as gift on 25th and started using within 2 weeks) or that they had been stored incorrectly. I have been advised that ‘similar colours are available from a pound shop nearby’ or to use a flow corrector or similar - but on further reading this will not work as the paint is completely hard and now water resistant - this is very unlikely to have happened in the 3-4 weeks since it was delivered.
So beware. Lovely product but let down by false promises re return or replace on website and poor customer service.
Computer supports Art.
It was a very enjoyful experience to see my seascape photo to turn into an artistic painting. I have a few more to paint. Thanks to "painting-by-number" technique painting turns to be a relaxing hobby, while painting is boring if you are not talented. Selected colors help a lot avoiding the mess on the palette from tubes. Some details should be cared in the photo before sending to computer for better results.
Color and calm are amazing
Color and calm are amazing. I was kept up to date with where my order was and is generally an amazing product. Fun to do and already want more.
Highly recommend
I have just ordered my second kit! I have no experience painting and I highly recommend this, so easy and relaxing to do and you get a masterpiece at the end! High quality canvas and paint!

I've done numerous paintings from 'colour and calm' and they are great. Most of mine are in black and white and greys and of rockstars, musicians and actors and they are almost like photographs when they are finished!

I’ve ordered more than 10 paint kits from them. This is my favorite hobby and they are my favorite company to buy paintings from.
