Paint By Number

No that isn't a clever title, this post is actually about painting by number. I got a paint by number kit (the dolphin one) in my stocking for Christmas and it was super fun. Mixing the colors and filling in the blanks is really relaxing for some reason. There have been a couple failures -- one of a lighthouse where I painted a huge chunk of the sky the wrong color and another of a dog that was just super ugly. But these three turned out pretty well. It makes me feel arty in spite of my lack of talent.
