You can get them on Amazon. You can get them either stretched on wooden frames, or not. You'll think it's cheaper to get them not stretched, buy frame pieces at your local craft store, and staple gun the canvas on yourself, but it's absolutely not. Not even by a penny. (I don't think the shipping cost varies that much either.) Search "adult paint by numbers kits" and you will find them. I was really into them this past year but like I said, it's hard to keep making stuff when you know it is just going to end up in your closet. Maybe if I lived in a big house I could hang and appreciate them all but the truth is, having painted them, it's hard for me to look at them now as pictures or landscapes or whatever. They still tend to look more like collections of different tiny patches of paint than images to me.
