Children’s paintings on canvas – hand-painted
A child’s room becomes magical with a painting made by a real artist. At svetslik.si we offer hand-painted children’s paintings on canvas with playful motifs of animals, nature and fairytale worlds – every painting is unique, never a print.
Playful animals and fairytale motifs
Our collection is full of endearing animal characters that delight any child’s corner – from cats, bunnies and piglets to giraffes, a little elephant, a panda, a tiger cub and mischievous chimpanzees. Alongside the lovable animals you’ll find fairytale scenes such as a magical kindergarten, playtime and colourful worlds. Soft, cheerful colours and gentle brushstrokes create a warm, soothing atmosphere above a cot, a child’s bed or a play corner – and spark a child’s imagination.
A perfect gift for children
Children’s paintings make a wonderful gift for a birth, christening or birthday, or for decorating a nursery or kindergarten. Because every painting is hand-painted to order in the size of your choice, it’s a lasting, original alternative to mass-printed décor – something a child keeps even as they grow up.

What size to choose and where to hang the painting
Many children’s paintings are square and are painted from 30 × 30 cm, a size that sits well next to a changing table or in a row of two or three; larger formats go above the cot or bed, about two thirds as wide as the furniture. Every painting lists its sizes on its own page. If you are not sure, send us a photo of the wall: we prepare a free preview of the painting in the nursery.
How the paintings are made and how you receive them
Every painting is painted by hand on canvas by one of our painters, in oil or acrylic; our painters work in different places, and stretcher and frame are fitted in our workshop in Slovenia. When the painting is finished we send you a photo of it and dispatch it after you confirm. You can have it rolled, stretched on a 2.5 cm wooden stretcher and ready to hang, or framed. Paintings painted to order arrive in 15 to 45 working days. We have been selling hand-painted paintings since 2011.
Frequently asked questions
Which painting suits a nursery or kids’ room?
Cheerful animals, fairy-tale scenes and bright colours. Most buyers choose one larger painting above the cot or two smaller ones side by side.
Is a children’s painting a good gift?
Yes, for a birth, a christening or a birthday. The painting is hand-painted, so it stays a keepsake when the child grows up.
How high should I hang a painting in a kids’ room?
A little lower than elsewhere, so the child sees it at eye level. Above a cot, hang it high enough that the child cannot reach it.
How much does a hand-painted children’s painting cost?
Prices start at 52 €. The price depends on the subject, the size and whether you want it rolled, stretched or framed.
What size painting suits a nursery?
From 30 × 30 cm for a corner or a row of small paintings; above the cot, a painting about two thirds of the cot’s width.
Can you paint the child’s favourite animal or character?
Yes. Send us the subject, colours and size at info@svetslik.si: we paint it to order.
Will the painting arrive rolled, stretched or framed?
You choose: rolled, stretched on a 2.5 cm stretcher and ready to hang, or framed. Stretching and framing are done in our workshop in Slovenia.
How long does delivery take, and do I see the painting first?
Paintings in stock are dispatched within 6 working days; paintings painted to order arrive in 15 to 45 working days. Before dispatch we send you a photo of the finished painting.
