Paintings are decorative blocks in Minecraft that hang on walls. To make a painting, open the crafting table and place wool in the middle of the 3x3 grid. Then place sticks in the remaining boxes to craft a painting. If you right-click the painting on a wall, it will place the painting and then checks for the largest amount of space it has. It then chooses a random painting of that size from a total of 26 paintings present.

Crafting a painting in Minecraft is pretty simple. All you have to do is get one stick and eight blocks of wool. To get your stick, all you need to do is get wooden planks. To get wooden planks, you need to do is punch a tree and get oak wood. You can then turn one piece of oak wood into four wooden planks in your crafting table
Now that you have gotten your wooden planks, you can place them in the crafting table. Make sure to stack them on top of each other like in the pattern below. This will enable you to craft sticks.
Now that you have your stick, you need to get wool. To get wool, simply kill a sheep. One sheep will normally drop one wool. You need to get eight blocks of wool and then take that along with your one stick to a crafting table. You can follow the recipe below to craft a painting.
To break your painting, all you need to do is left-click it once. This will drop the painting on the floor and you can pick it up.
If you can find a master level shepherd villager, you can trade him two emeralds for three paintings.
Minecraft paintings are actually really easy to use. If you right-click the painting on a wall, it will place the painting on the wall as long as there are enough available blocks on the wall.
