Celebrated for its blend of humour and artistry, reproduce Cassius Marcellus Coolidge’s "A Friend in Need", with our intermediate paint-by-numbers kit. Painted in 1903, "A Friend in Need" is one of the most beloved pieces from Coolidge's "Dogs Playing Poker" series, humorously depicting a group of dogs engaging in a poker game, with one slyly passing an ace to his partner. Perhaps it’s this sly, yet playful depiction of deceit applied to man’s best, most loyal friend that makes the painting so amusing. This 40x60cm canvas offers an engaging challenge for those looking to capture the humorous and charming details of Coolidge's iconic work, with the guidance of our numbered canvas, ensuring a satisfying and enjoyable painting experience.

Reference Sheet

No Reference Sheet, No Problem!

At Painting By Numbers, we've opted for a digital reference instead of printed sheets - an easy, effective option that not only supports sustainable practices but also allows you to zoom-in and view every detail effortlessly. Having a photo/file on your device also means you can refer to it anywhere, anytime, without needing to carry extra sheets.

For all of our pre-made designs, we offer a convenient downloadable option to access a digital copy of each design, making it easy for you to view a clear, high-resolution version if needed. Click below to access your downloadable reference sheet!

Or opt for another simple solution: take a photo! A photo reference is arguably more accessible and saves storage space on your device, making it a practical, clutter-free option for viewing details as you paint.

Why We Don’t Provide Printed Reference Sheets
Printed reference sheets may seem convenient, but they come with limitations. Typically, they are smaller than the canvas itself, making details hard to read without zooming in. Producing them for each kit also consumes resources and generates unnecessary paper waste, which runs counter to our commitment to sustainability.

Prompt delivery and very pleased with the product. Would have liked to have received a paper chart of the painting with the numbers, as other companies do provide, as this does help if a mistake has been made.
