Painting by Numbers is a system where a picture is divided into shapes, each marked with a number that corresponds to a particular color. You paint in each shape and ultimately the picture emerges as a finished painting.
The painting by numbers approach is often ridiculed as being simplistic, uncreative, and formulaic. I believe it's helpful in getting across the concept that a painting is built up through multiple shapes of color. These shapes often don't make sense individually, nor look like anything "real", but put together as a group they create the image.
The next step in developing as a painter is to learn to see such color shapes for yourself, without the aid of a printed diagram. Completing a painting by numbers project helps you learn to analyze a subject and observe areas of color.
