The answers to today's Strands, game #168, are PAINT BRUSH CANVAS MOLD EASEL 
PALETTE CHARCOAL SPANGRAM: ARTCLASS My rating: Moderate My score: Perfect 

Art is not my thing. I can appreciate it, sure, but ask me to actually draw 
or paint something and, well, you'd be better off asking my dog. I am 
terrible. As a result, this art-themed Strands puzzle from the NYT probably 
caused me more problems than it might otherwise have done. 

There's nothing truly difficult about it, and I worked out what the theme was 
relatively early on (after finding PAINT and BRUSH by accident). However, I 
simply couldn't think of things that an artist would need beyond those two 
things. CANVAS was, admittedly, an easy one that I eventually spotted, but 
the likes of EASEL and PALETTE took me ages to find. Still, no complaints 
from me  it's good to get the brain working and I solved it in the end.
