# Description
Proficiency with Painter's Supplies represents your ability to paint and draw. You also acquire an understanding of art history, which can aid you in examining works of art.
**_Components._** Painter's Supplies include an easel, canvas, paints, brushes, charcoal sticks, and a palette.
**_Arcana, History, Religion._** Your expertise aids you in uncovering lore of any sort that is attached to a work of art, such as the arcane properties of a painting or the origins of a strange mural found in a dungeon.
**_Investigation, Perception._** When you inspect a painting or a similar work of visual art, your knowledge of the practices behind creating it can grant you additional insight.
**_Painting and Drawing._** As part of a Short or Long Rest, you can produce a simple work of art. Although your work might lack precision, you can capture an image or a scene, or make a quick copy of a piece of art you saw.
