Started writing this post on May 1st but posting it today :)
We have a long weekend in this part of the world and I have plans to complete my long pending project.
My DD wanted a gallery wall in her bedroom. She said "Ma,i want one wall of my room to be filled with art". This statement was not made recently but couple of years back. You know time really flies.

Now,
I've finally got enough paintings to fill her wall with.
Most of the painting were done by my DD
herself..For the past years during her summer vacation’s I bought her
painting by number kits. These kits are fun for children of any age group.
Wiki has answer for everything J
As per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_by_number Paint by number (or painting by numbers) describes kits having a board on which light blue or gray lines indicate areas to paint, each area having a number and a corresponding numbered paint to use. The kits were invented, developed and marketed in 1950 by Max S. Klein, an engineer and owner of the Palmer Paint Company of Detroit, Michigan and Dan Robbins, a commercial artist.
The kits come with different skill levels based on the age group. I strongly advise people to try these kits. There are many online sites selling these kits.

"Paint Radiant Realism in Watercolor, Ink & Colored Pencil" by Sueellen Ross is beautiful book.
Sueellen Ross achieves realism in her paintings by following the principal of painting by maps or areas the painting by number kits use. She does not have a dedicated site but you can find many of her paintings online. Her pet paintings are photo realistic J Do check them
The painting by number kits are not closer to what Ross achieves in her paintings but worth the try.
