"Paint works of art."

An easel is used to create decorative items. It was introduced in version 1.5.

Appearance

When placed, an easel consists of four lines appearing to form a tripod with a cross-bar. The coloring varies with the easel's level (brown/wood level 1, tan/bronze level 2, white/steel level 3). When painting, the image being painted is shown on the easel, though without color at first. Over time during the crafting process it will gain color depending on what dyes you chose.

Unlike most other crafting surfaces, it takes up two blocks vertically. (A portal occupies three if the solid block base is counted.)

Where Found

A block of wood is required to craft an easel using a level 2 workbench.

Using

Like the campfire, an easel must be placed on top of a solid block before it can be used.

Tapping on an easel gives two options: Remove and Easel.

Remove causes the selected Blockhead to move to the easel and place it in his/her inventory.

Easel opens the crafting menu, showing a left-right scrollable list of icons. See Crafting for details about how to use the menu. Tapping the "Craft" button (if visible) will add the task to the selected Blockhead's queue.

When crafting a painting, an image from the device can be selected to be painted.

Tapping outside of the menu will close the easel menu with no action taken.
