About Dark Paintings
From ModrinthAdds new paintings to Minecraft

This mod adds many new paintings to the game! These paintings come in a variety of sizes and art styles. Each painting was designed and illustrated by a member of our community! These paintings are seamlessly integrated with the vanilla paintings and can be placed in the world using the normal painting item. There are also items in the creative tab that can be used to place a specific design exactly where you want it!
Thanks to the many talented artists who have collaborated with me on this mod, including mmg28rtt, FuryDev, Axeonlotl, Wouter, Absolem Jackdaw, Punpudle, Superkat32, and me Darkhax lol.
