For paints, you can farm them anywhere effectively. Higher level monsters drop better paint, so it takes about as long either way. For leaf farming, the best places are whatever you can kill the fastest. That pretty much means large mobs of weak monsters. The Cave of Mushrooms and Sleepy Dungeon both fit that bill. As to where you could train at the same time... I don't know. =/

I'm not sure how accurate it is, but the person who posted this information at least had the general idea of what's going on. You get different portraits depending on your level, either a mushroom, octopus, or yeti. Each portrait requires a certain number of "points" to finish. The yeti painting needs 80, the octopus needs 40, and the mushroom needs 20. Each paint you apply gives your portrait a certain number of points. Yellow paint gives 1 point, purple gives 2 points, and blue gives 3 points. However, every time the portrait changes, any points over the amount needed are discarded. So for example, if you need 20 points to change its state, have 19, and use a blue paint to get to 22, it will discard the extra 2 points and set you back to 20. So in summary, higher levels need more paint to finish a portrait, while better paint means you need less paint to finish a portrait.
