a dark brick studio, Bloodriven Exterior, Lich #26903, go studio

[A Moment In Time, Studio]
Diffused sunlight spills through silk-veiled openings in the ceiling and casts a muted haze against pale crimson, raised panel walls. Knotty pine shelves lined with paintbrushes, stacks of canvas, and other painting supplies, stretch from the entrance to the back of the studio where a raised platform showcases a couple easels.
Obvious exits: out
For the creative at heart, these easels provide a perfect solution to capturing special moments in time.
Canvas can be purchased in handy 10-piece stacks, and boxes, specially designed to squeeze the pulp out of sturdy twigs and create single sheets of canvas, are also available at a premium cost.  All easels have 20 sheets of canvas.
Paintings created by artists with little skill will be less elaborate than those created by artists with more skill.  Remember: practice makes perfect!

On the shelves you see:

a contoured gold-handled paintbrush Weight: <1 pound 5
a long slant-bristled paintbrush Weight: <1 pound 5
a feather-topped oak paintbrush Weight: <1 pound 5

one item

This mistwood box can create sheets of canvas from non-broken foraged twigs, and are to be used with the Artist's Easel sold originally in Bloodriven Village at Duskruin Arena.
Alterations to the box are fine provided the item remains some kind of lidded container
Current verbs: CLOSE, DROP (twig in box), LOOK, OPEN, and SHAKE.
Try as you might, you cannot get a good sense of whether or not the box's pockets could get any deeper, but you can tell that the box is as light as it can get.

an ivory cotton apron Weight: <1 pound
Pocketed: VSA (<2-4)
a couple of items of very small size

You can tell that the apron is as light as it can get, but you might be able to have a talented merchant deepen its pockets for you.

a small sign

In the Common language, it reads:
The rowan easel is a basic easel. The silver-chased ash easel has some additional features for more skilled painters. Both easels allow artists to hone their talent equally.

On the raised platform you see:

a pale rowan easel Weight: 3 pounds

analyze

This item can be freely altered, but it must remain an "easel". Long descriptions are okay; no shows. It may not be lightened/deepened. Current verbs: CLEAN, CLOSE, HUG, OPEN, and PULL.
If you are holding a suitable paintbrush, you can PAINT EASEL to paint pictures! As you paint more pictures, your skill will progress, and you will create more elaborate paintings. Your easel must be on the ground in order to paint.
If you progress far enough in your painting skill, and you have an unlocked easel, you can:
Tier 1: paint a portrait of another person using pre-written styles.
Tier 2: design your own custom paintings. (Please note that this tier will be rare.)
HUG the rowan easel to view the syntax for special Master Painter commands.
The easel is currently Tier 0. (0|1|2)
