Line 37:
Until the Sim has five points of Creativity skill, the only option is "Practice Painting". For Sims with at least five points of Creativity skill, this becomes "Paint", and the ability to paint a still life or portrait is unlocked. For both of those actions, the player will be shown a frame with the same dimensions as the easel. This can be used to select the view that will be painted. For a still life, nothing more needs to be done; the Sim will start painting as soon as the player selects a scene, and can stop and continue as with any other painting. However, if the player chooses to have the Sim paint a portrait, the Sim to be painted will come to stand beside the easel. The Sim cannot be posed, and the player will need to use the frame to line up the portrait. The Sim painting the portrait will only be able to work on it while the subject is standing next to the easel.
If ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business|Open for Business]]'' is installed, painted canvases can be sold in an owned [[business]] for a higher value than if it is sold from the easel.
The ''[[The Sims 2: Pets|Pets]]'' [[expansion pack]] added the ability for Sims with at least five points of Creativity skill to paint custom paintings from images on the player's computer, as long as they have the same dimensions as the easel's canvas. If ''[[FreeTime]]'' is installed, the easel also builds [[enthusiasm]] for the [[Arts and Crafts]] [[hobby]].▼

Since children, and even [[toddler]]s, can gain Creativity skill in ''The Sims 2'', the quality of a child's paintings will depend on his or her skill level, just as with adults.

==The Sims 4==
Sims only have access to one easel at the beginning, and can only paint classic paintings with it. Other painting types unlock as a Sim's painting skill improves. Any Sim can paint, though children have the Creative Art Thou Activity Table which serves a similar function to the easel. Painting is heavily influenced by [[emotions]], and 6 special emotional paintings are available to paint, though Sims cannot paint if they are [[tense]] or [[uncomfortable]]. Sims can unlock additional easels by advancing up the [[Painter]] career. Sims can also carry easels in their [[inventory]].
