About this project
What does Easel Does It! add?
About
Easel Does It is a simple mod that aims to make working with paintings easier, as first conceptualised here.
⚠️ Warning: Easel Does It requires Blueprint for all versions.
⚠️ Fast Painting players: Please go to the Fast Paintings config and set the "nbt_drop" value to "WHEN_PLACED_WITH_NBT" for intended behavior with this mod.

Features
The Easel is a new workstation that allows players to set painting items to always place the variant they want via a GUI, as shown below. We added 5 new paintings to spice up your decoration game! If you want the easel to hold a painting, simply sneak and right-click it with one. To take it back, sneak and right-click it with an empty hand.
If a villager claims an easel as their job site, they become an Artist - A new profession that trades dyed blocks and items, as well as a special exclusive painting that cannot be placed normally. Easels and Artist villagers naturally generate in new Artist House structures, found in every type of village.
We also fix MC-257133, which causes a client-server desync when placing paintings on spaces where they do not fit.
Compatibility
Easels are fully compatible with modded paintings. It is intended to accomodate the loads of painting variants that some modpacks have! We recommend the Abnormals Suite and Portfolio.
The Artist will also offer new trades if you have the following mods installed:
- Farmer's Delight: Artists will buy canvas and sell hanging canvas signs.
- Chalk: Artists will sell chalk of all colors.
- Dye Depot: Artist will sell blocks colored in the dye depot dyes.
