Not to be confused with Artistic.

The Artist career track is found in the University expansion pack for The Sims 2. It is only available to college graduates, so it does not have a Teen/Elder track. If Apartment Life is installed, Bohemians are likely to work in this career track. The Career reward for this career track is the Luminous Pro Antique Camera.

Artist Career Levels
1) Canvas Stretcher
At the bottom rung of the art world, you make sure every piece of canvas sold at Dave's Art Emporium is stretched tight over its frame. But it's no dead end: you're allowed to watercolor on leftover canvases, and you're able to build up some charisma and make artsy friends while ringing up purchases for the clientele.	S M T W T F S	0

Mr. Big, who runs the "Lucille, Largest Llama in the World" roadside attraction, hires you to whittle souvenir llamas for visitors who make the trek out to see Lucille.
