Little Shop of Arts

If you are looking for TS1 art please go to Art For Art's Sake.

"Little Shop of Arts" is a small home based art shop, selling paintings and decoratives (TS2). I don't paint myself, but I I frame and sell motives that can not be found elsewhere.

I'm not a technical expert, but I think that all my offers will require CEP in order to work in your hood. Download CEP for free. (credits to Numenor)

 
In the works
I'm busy with several projects:
Superstar fan posters: Coming soon is a new Olivia Hoover fan poster.The stars of your hood might want a fan poster, too? Contact me on top of this page.
Family portraits: A local project in Simmerville where top 5 notch of the networth list are offered to buy a double portrait for §1000. This far I created the Gobelins, Brybreys and Mervils. Not decided yet whether these will be available to others.
Historical: Very interesting project that includes TS1 memories. Will definitely be available to all.

April 19: Ancient Blue Bunny - a must to collectors!
Finally, after the exciting discovery here in Simmerville, I've finally made a replica of the famous old Blue Bunny painting. This might be the only known wall decorative that survived the TS2 revolution, in fact experts think it might be even older than the TS1 era. So, when your guests ask why the picture is pale, you can tell them that it is very old and faded. Replicas don't need to be faded, but this time it is! ("Olive Peynter's City SkyScape" recolour)

December 11: Corkboards galore (TS2)
Personalize your cork board! Here comes a set of 22 recolours, everything a Sim can ask for when we talk about corkboards. There are 2 alternatives for Family, Fortune, Romance, Popularity, Knowledge and general - one rather packed and another a bit more tidy. Are you a neat Sim you will go for the latter... In addition you find several boards with mixed content because a household often combines at least 2 aspirations. During Simmerville web's new Simology series we will offer more corkboards focusing on various interestst as well as a few bonus versions!

NB: You might not need ALL of these recolours. It's easier to tell good from bad when you see them on the wall rather than in the catalog. We suggest that you install them all in a Downloads_Simmerville folder, then have a Sim check them out with the redesign tool and delete those that appeal less to the residents of your hood.

November 24: Hobby pack for hobby painters (TS2)
Set of 11 original motives that Sims now can paint on their easel. All have a rather amateurish feel, like it should be when a Sim has just learned to paint a custom painting (4 or more creativity skills required). These might still make a nice decoration in some homes, or maybe in your vacation home? Nobody paints a perfect Mona Lisa on their first week! These motives can only be painted as "paint custom painting" - which requires Pets (or later?). Place files in the folder  EA Games > The Sims 2 > Paintings. If you can't paint custom paintings, then you should not download this pack.
