Artista - Stardew Painter

by Platonymous
Buy an easel, some canvas and become a painter.


You can buy the easel and canvas at Pierre's.
(If you set the config to FreeCanvas: true, you will not need to buy canvas, it then comes with the easel)
Put the Easel somewhere, drop a canvas on it and start painting.
The canvas can pe put on your wall in a default frame, you get the painting by pressing "Frame" in the Painting Menu.
You can always drop the framed painting back on the easel to change it.

Competition (1.4.0+)
Artista now has a build in bimonthly competition.
The current theme is: "Portraits"
You can enter the competition by clicking "compete" in the paint menu after you're painting is done.
