<blockquote>''All Sims love to paint, and with an Independent Expressions easel, painting is a snap. This "blank canvas" is sturdy enough for use indoors or out, and blank enough to allow even the most independent creativity to blossom and grow.''</blockquote>
 
 
 
In ''The Sims 2'', the easel is called the '''Independent Expressions Inc. Easel'''. It costs §100 more than its counterpart in ''The Sims'', but is considerably improved. With the Independent Expressions Easel, only the Sim who started a painting can continue it, though any Sim can scrap a painting. (Sims will not scrap paintings autonomously.) The player can click on a finished painting to sell it, or use the hand tool in [[Buy mode]] to remove it from the easel and place it on a wall.
Line 46 ⟶ 50:
A Sim may have a [[Wants and Fears|want]] to "Sell a Masterpiece", which is fulfilled if the painting sells for over §500, or a fear of selling a lousy painting, which is fulfilled if the painting sells for under §100. The first time a Sim sells a masterpiece, he or she will receive a positive memory. A Sim who has just sold a masterpiece will often receive a minor want to quit his or her job.
 
An easel with a partially-finished painting can be placed in a Sim's [[inventory]]. The painting can be finished at a later time. However, if the Sim who has the easel in their inventory moves to a different lot, the easel will "forget" who started the painting, and the painting will have to be scrapped.
