Names
The Painter may have the following names:


 * It is apparent that most of his names are references to famous artists.
 * Two of the names, Mario and Luigi, are the two main characters of the Super Mario Brothers video games.
 * He is most likely Italian, considering most of his names and some of his dialogue is Italian.
 * The possible name "Stefano" may be a reference to the inanimate golden statue from Amnesia: The Dark Descent, whom the community has come to know as "Stefano" due to the famous Youtuber Pewdiepie naming it as such. This is further evidenced by the spelling of the name (which is usually spelled with a "ph" instead of an "f"), and the fact that the statue in Amnesia, according to the developers, was originally going to be a "shiny titanium white" color, referenced by the painters quote pertaining to being "out of titanium white".

Quotes

 * "I'm all out of titanium white, so don't even ask."
 * "Check out [Name of Party Girl]. Now that's a girl who can paint the town red! (Only if Party Girl is present) (Probably a reference to the phrase "Paint the town red" meaning to go to different places in a town and party.)
 * "I know the difference between turquoise and blue-green. But I won't tell you."
 * "Try swirly pink and purple, it works, I swear!" (But it doesn't really work.)
 * "I hope it doesn't rain again until this paint dries. That would be a disaster!"
 * "No, no, no... There's TONS of different grays! Don't get me started..." (Possibly a reference to the book "Fifty Shades of Gray")

Trivia
