Note: Technique of producing a painting by filling in outlined shapes and delineated areas of shading with a designated color of paint; typically available in a packaged kit. The technique was developed commercially in the 1950s in the United States, intended for amateurs but based on a technique that had reportedly been used in the Renaissance and earlier for teaching painting and to aid a master's assistants in painting large frescoes. Modern paint-by-number technique typically employs small containers of different colored paints that are each identified with a number; areas and patterns on a board or canvas are coded with the corresponding numbers for these colors. When the painter fills in the areas with the designated colors, the finished painting emerges. |

Dutch ..... Techniek voor het produceren van een schilderij door het invullen van contouren en afgebakende schaduwgebieden met een aangeduide verfkleur, meestal verkrijgbaar in een pakket. De techniek werd in de jaren vijftig van de 20ste eeuw commercieel ontwikkeld in de Verenigde Staten en was bestemd voor amateurs. Hij was echter gebaseerd op een techniek die al zou zijn gebruikt in de Renaissance en eerder nog eerder voor het aanleren van schilderen en om assistenten van een meester te helpen bij het schilderen van grote fresco's. Moderne technieken voor schilderen op nummer maken meestal gebruik van kleine potjes met verschillende kleuren verf die apart zijn genummerd, en gebieden en patronen op een bord of doek die zijn gemarkeerd met de corresponderende nummers van deze kleuren. De schilder voltooit het schilderij door de gebieden op te vullen met de aangeduide kleuren. |
