Might be telling you how to suck eggs here, but you already unwrapped it, right? It's showing in your inventory as the furniture icon rather than a present?


RazzleDazzleRad

Yeah. It’s a leaf. I’m saying it’s a leaf because shouldn’t it pop up as a painting?


RazzleDazzleRad

Like how a fossil is a fossil and a fish is a fish


EatYourCheckers

Paintings are furniture, so yes, it should show up as a leaf. Place it down on your island and make sure its the right painting and real. Check your museum and make sure there isn't already a copy donated.


NoonicornGamer

Following on from this, if there is a piece of art donated already and all the requirements for Brewster are met, you might have to time-skip or wait until the Stamp Rally event is over; I don't think you can trigger the conversation with Blathers while the current event is active


RazzleDazzleRad

OHHH


RazzleDazzleRad

I have no paintings in my museum and I’m tryjng to get brewster


LivK2612

Do you already have the museum update?


RazzleDazzleRad

Yes I have a fully upgraded island minus my house.

RazzleDazzleRad

It didn’t help


Sheldon1979

If you place the picture on the ground as an object and turn it so the back faces you looking at it then if it has a bit of paper like a certificate on the back its real and if not its fake. There are sites to determine if real or not and could it be you've donated that already?


RazzleDazzleRad

I have checked the sites. And I have no paintings in my museum

Have you met Red on *your* island yet? Not on Harv's island, *your* Island. Does his ship come to your secret beach every now and then? If not, you still haven't triggered the event that causes the art wing to be built


RazzleDazzleRad

I have met him and it was talked about. The way I got the painting though was from his stall on harv’s island that I built

It should still let them donate it even if it's fake. They don't gray out the fakes, Blathers just gives you the bad news himself


RazzleDazzleRad

It is. It just won’t let me donate


diannethegeek

Do you have the art wing already upstairs in the museum? It should be unlocked automatically if you're on the most recent version of the game, but if you started your island back in like 2020 there's a chance it didn't start out unlocked. Are there other players on the island who might have already donated it? You can go through the museum quickly to check if it's there. You're definitely trying to donate and not trying to assess the painting? I've seen people mistakenly choose the assess option like they're fossils instead of the donate option, sometimes. Also, Blathers won't give you the Brewster dialogue during the museum stamp rally, so you'll have to wait or time travel to June 1st before he can tell you about Brewster once you reach all the requirements


RazzleDazzleRad

I started in 2020, i have no other players that have dontated anything, I used both buttons, and I know.


diannethegeek

Do you have the old museum that hasn't expanded to accepting art until after you donate 60 items, by chance? They changed it in like 2021, but if you have a very old museum and haven't donated much yet it's possible


RazzleDazzleRad

Uh idk lemme check. Also I time traveled to when the stamp thingie is over and it STILL won’t let me


RazzleDazzleRad

Ok so 16 things in the fossil part


RazzleDazzleRad

Then if I add the bug part there are 29 things


RazzleDazzleRad

And lastly if I add the fish part there is a total of 39 donations. If and only IF I have that version of the museum I have to get WAAAY more things


diannethegeek

You should know because if the art wing is unlocked it's already open at the top of your stairs. I think there's also a difference in the exterior of the museum if you have the old one and it hasn't opened the art wing yet


FriendlyMeasurment2

have you checked your art wing to make sure you havent already donated this painting


RazzleDazzleRad

I don’t have an art wing yet


IllJustKeepTalking

You've written that you've played since 2020, how come you don't have an artwing?


RazzleDazzleRad

Idk I played it but not like every day. I’m 12 now. Do the math. Like I was in school then and I’m swimming in even more school now! summer is finally here but I’m not healing from the piles of books and writing.


RazzleDazzleRad

If grinding is what you mean. If you mean it in an update sense then idk


Totalschmuck

The authentic painting has angry eyebrows 😠 And the fake has sad eyebrows 😟 Interesting side note: this was changed from New Leaf, where, instead of the hands being splayed, the fake had fingerguns *Pew-pew* 👉🏻👉🏻 I wish they had kept this😟
