Description
This mod lets you craft a blank canvas and a palette, with which you can paint your own pictures and hang them on a wall like the vanilla paintings. Let your creativity roam free or paint memes and experience the joy of painting. This is the Neo/Forge rewrite of xerca0's version.
If you are interested in making music as well, check Music Maker Mod, another one of their mods.
