Black Art Painting Mod
I created this mod because I wanted my sims to be able to create art that is more of a black art aesthetics, cultured and of this generation instead of the bland boring ones in game if you get what I mean lol.
About The Mod:
This mod overrides the default paintings in game with 300+ NEW paintings that adds more of a "black art aesthetics."
This mod is functional via the Easel and the "Digitalistic Sketchpad" found in Build Buy.
This mod is base game compatible.
New paintings will unlock based on your sims Skill Level. As your sims gain skill levels in painting they will unlock and be able to paint masterpiece paintings.
Sims can also paint based on Emotions and Moods such as Confident, Focused, Playful, Flirty, Sad, And Angry. If your sims are feeling tensed or uncomfortable they won't be able to paint.
Overrides the following art categories: Classic, Pop Art, Surreal, Abstract, Realism, Impressionism, Emotional, Landscape, Figure
Functional Paintings:
Frame Your Paintings
Name Your Paintings
Sell To Collector
List On Plopsy or Etsy
Place Paintings On Walls
Place Paintings In Your Sims Inventory
Use keys "[ and ]" to resize paintings
Recommended Mods (Optional):
Some of the art paintings in each category might not be an accurate representation but I tried my best to match the art to each category while also adding my own twist.
