Beyond Painting by Numbers

Tired of the paint-by-number approach to art? Art Adventure Box® has everything you need to tap into your unique creativity and create your art your way.

Art can be more than matching numbered paints to numbered shapes on a cardboard canvas. Creativity is the essence of art, and the act of making unique art allows us to be true to our creative selves. So the takeaway is pretty simple — create your art your way!

Unfortunately, store shelves are full of art kits offering the paint-by-numbers approach, in which users are instructed to copy rather than inspired to create! The result produced with this kind of kit is — at best — predictive, unoriginal, and bland.

We understand that it can feel safe to hide your creative self behind instruction — behind someone choosing the subject for your art and then telling you exactly how to do it. But be brave, like famous French Fauvist Henri Matisse once said: "Creativity takes courage."

No one gets the importance of unique creativity better than Art Adventure Box® — which is why we support you throughout your artistic journey. Our products are full of artful knowledge, confidence-building activities, and premium materials designed to empower and inspire you to create your art your way!

Celebrate the idea that an art kit can provide endless creative possibilities so that you can set your art apart. Case in point, we're happy to share artwork from creators who didn't let conformity crush their creativity and dared to do art differently with Art Adventure Box®. These unique works of art were all created using Clay & Impasto á la Van Gogh — a Mind 'n' Muse Art Box.

So what sets Art Adventure Box® apart from the other art kits sitting on those store shelves?
