PART-TIME PAINTER CAREER
Inspire your fellow Sims by introducing more art into their lives. Whether you do so through art creation, collection, critique, or even therapy – you will surely make your town happier and prettier.

The art of forgery requires a discerning eye and a careful technique. Trick those so-called art experts by recreating paintings indistinguishable from the originals.
