It depends on the height of the ceilings. If they are 10 feet, that would put the painted area at 420 square feet. Paint covers approx 350 - 400 square feet per gallon over a sealed surface, depending on the texture of the wall so it would take about 1 1/2 gallons of paint for one coat. Lower ceilings will use a little less, cathedral or tall ceilings more. Add in another gallon if you are painting the ceiling.

It depends on the quality of the paint and what you are covering. Most paint suppliers tell you their paint will cover in one coat, but you just can't beat the look of a room that has two good coats of color. For a 14x12 room, you'll probably need 2 gallons. The first coat will take more paint than the second.
