Painting is one of the most lucrative hobbies in The Sims 4. Your Sim can potentially earn tens of thousands of Simoleons for their paintings. Make sure they constantly improve their painting skill and success is guaranteed.
Which painting makes the most money in The Sims 4?
Large classic and abstract paintings bring in the most money. Sims that have mastered the Painting skill can sell their creations for 13-15K Simoleons. If your Sim also has the Creative Visionary, Perfectionist, and Marketable traits, their paintings can sell for up to 20K Simoleons.
How do you get more money on paintings in The Sims 4?
How much money your Sim makes selling paintings depends on their Painting skill level and traits. Level 10 painters that also have the Inspired moodlet often put out high-value masterpieces.
You can sell masterpiece paintings to increase household funds.
Step 1: Make sure your Sim is Happy, Confident, and Inspired
To get more money for your paintings, be sure your Sim is Happy, Confident, and Inspired. Take a thoughtful shower, view art, do some art research, and buy the best easel.
The Inspired moodlet increases the chances of putting out high-value masterpieces. Painting by reference often yields high-value paintings. The same is valid for classic and abstract paintings.
On the other hand, impression and pop art paintings don’t pay that well. So, you may want to stay away from them.
Step 2: Get the Marketable and Creative Visionary traits
The Marketable trait can increase the value of your painting by up to three times. If your painting is initially worth 5K Simoleons, this trait can increase its value up to 15K Simoleons.
You can purchase the Marketable trait with Satisfaction Points.
Additionally, the Creative Visionary reward trait increases the chances of creating masterpieces. Sims that have the Marketable and Creative Visionary traits often paint high-value masterpieces.
By the way, Sims with the Perfectionist trait will sometimes scrape their paintings. If it’s not a flawless masterpiece, it gets tossed.
Conclusion
Large classic and abstract paintings bring in the most money in Sims 4. Be sure your Sim is Inspired while painting. Sims that have mastered the Painting skill, and have the Creative Visionary, Perfectionist, and Marketable traits often create high-value masterpieces that sell for tens of thousands of Simoleons.
