'''Easels''' are objects in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', and ''[[The Sims 3]]''. They build [[Fun]], and allow Sims to make money by selling their paintings. In ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2'', painting at an easel builds the [[Creativity]] skill, and in ''The Sims 3'', it builds the [[painting]] skill.
===The Sims===
In ''The Sims'', the easel is called the '''"Dimanche" Folding Easel''', though it does not actually fold. (In keeping with the artsy theme of this easel, "Dimanche" means "Sunday" in French.) The paintings made on it are not separate from it, and cannot be removed from it. A partially finished painting cannot be scrapped, but the easel can be sold with a partially finished painting on it.
It can be used by [[child]]ren, but the painting they produce will be, well, childish.
===The Sims 2===
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.) If a Sim has at least five points of Creativity skill, he or she can paint a still life or portrait.
Since children, and even [[toddler]]s, can gain Creativity skill in ''The Sims 2'', the quality - and sale price - of a child's paintings will depend on his or her skill level, just as with adults.
