How do I get my Sim to "create a masterpiece"? She's painted a lot of still lifes and some of the pics that you can choose from, plus painted other Sims in her family. Is there a trick to it? Or is it just a numbers game...that you have to do so many paintings to get there?
I've been checking around and it seems that some of my Sims had actually created some masterpieces but the game doesn't really call attention to it the way it does when you write a best-seller. Evidently you have a better chance if the painting sells for over $500. I would assume you need to paint using either "still life" or "paint a portrait of..."
I found that if you did a portrait, you had less chance than if you just painted whatever came up. Some of the routine pictures tend to be masterpieces each time they're painted. (Of course, you can get mighty tired of those same pictures over and over again.)
