Art Supplies were debuted at Ebon Gate 2020 in the Art Connection. They are scripted props with special messaging.

Portfolios

Analyze

You analyze your black leather portfolio and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item has restrictions on changing the noun."

The creator has also provided the following information:

This is a fluff art supply item that uses the verbs PUT and GET.

Alterations are fine, including long and show descriptions, as long as the noun remains portfolio, and it is made from some type of leather or cloth.  This item cannot be worn.

Try as you might, you cannot get a good sense of whether or not the portfolio's pockets could get any deeper, but you can tell that the portfolio is as light as it can get.

Usage

Style First Third
PUT You carefully slide your white paper into one of the sleeves in your black leather portfolio. XXX carefully slides her white paper into one of the sleeves in her black leather portfolio.
GET You carefully remove your white paper from one of the sleeves in your black leather portfolio. XXX carefully removes her white paper from one of the sleeves in her black leather portfolio.

Kits

Analyze

You analyze your paintbrush kit and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item has restrictions on changing the noun."

The creator has also provided the following information:

This is a fluff art supply item that uses the verbs OPEN, CLOSE, and GET.  You can put your brushes or paintbrushes inside.

Alterations are fine, including long and show descriptions, as long as it remains a paintbrush kit, and it is made from leather.  This item should not be made wearable.

Try as you might, you cannot get a good sense of whether or not the kit's pockets could get any deeper, but you can tell that the kit is as light as it can get.

Usage

Style First Third
CLOSE You flip closed the leather flap covering your paintbrushes, securing them in the paintbrush kit. Hopefully you remembered to clean the brushes this time. XXX flips closed the leather flap covering her paintbrush kit and checks to make sure everything is secure.
OPEN This verb is currently broken.
GET You reach into your paintbrush kit and pull out an ebony paintbrush, splattering bits of leftover paint inside the kit. Don't you ever clean this thing? XXX reaches into her paintbrush kit and rummages around for moment... until she finally pulls out an ebony paintbrush with a flourish.

Solvent

Analyze

You analyze your bottle of solvent and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item has restrictions on changing the noun."

The creator has also provided the following information:

This is a fluff art supply item that uses the verbs SMELL and POUR.
You can pour the solvent on yourself as well as a painting, easel, palette, canvas, razor, parchment, paper, or vellum.

Alterations are fine, including long and show descriptions, as long as the noun remains solvent, and the material remains a glass-like material.

You get no sense of whether or not the solvent may be further lightened.

Usage

Style First Third
POUR You apply a small amount of solvent to the surface of your steel easel, loosening the pigment from its surface. XXX applies a little solvent to the surface of her steel easel, loosening the pigment from its surface.
SMELL Acrid and astringent, the solvent causes your nose to run and eyes to water. XXX's eyes water as she sniffs the bottle of solvent.

The creator has also provided the following information:

Alterations are fine, including long and show descriptions, as long as the noun remains cloth, and the material is a type of cloth that could be used for cleaning.

Usage

Style First Third
RUB You dab at a tiny splodge of paint on your clothing with the corner of your cloth. XXX dabs at a tiny splodge of paint on her clothing with the corner of her cloth.
