Paint of Worlds

The paint of worlds is powerfully enchanted paint that can be used to create pocket dimensions called Painted Worlds. The dimension created will be either realistic or artistic, depending on the intent, skill, and style of the artist creating it, possibly having entirely new laws of physics. The size of the world varies depending on the strength of the paint, and it may extend further, or even be smaller, than what can actually be seen in the painting itself. Some worlds may even be furnished with fantastic creatures or magical artifacts, however, none of them can be brought from the painting into the real world. Entering a Painted World is as simple as touching it with the intent to enter, though leaving it can be more difficult and often requires finding or creating a symbol password designated by the artist and then touching it. The worlds invariable have hints scattered throughout them to find the way out even, if the artist does not want it to be obvious.
== Variants ==
=== Paint of Being ===
Paint of Being is magical paint that can bring art drawn on paper into the "real" world. Anything the artist draws with it will become three dimensional, and may even be given life, possibly even intelligence, if the paint's magic is powerful enough. The creations of this paint have a "skin" with the consistency of dried paint and their insides are a slosh of wet paint.
=== Painted Prison ===
A painted prison is a Painted World that can be entered without intent. Finding the means of escape is far more difficult than any regular Painted World, and for some it may even be impossible. While a person is trapped inside the painting, they will be physically visible on the painting itself, sometimes covering up most of the painting with their portrait. Painting over them while they are in this state can potentially kill them, and a cruel jailer can draw in more threats and challenges around them to make their imprisonment a painted nightmare.
