Omgosh! They have removed copy rights for a huge selection of the best artists works! We can use a huge selection of them for free!

Just choose the “downloadable filter” see below

So I went here
https://www.nga.gov/notices/open-access-policy.html

They are available for download on this link nga.gov object pages. See Policy Details below for specific instructions and notes for users.

That takes you here

https://www.nga.gov/collection-search-result.html?sortOrder=DEFAULT&artobj_downloadable=Image_download_available&pageNumber=1&lastFacet=artobj_downloadable.html

Then opened “Display Options”
https://www.nga.gov/collection-search-result.html?sortOrder=DEFAULT&artobj_downloadable=Image_download_available&pageNumber=1&lastFacet=artobj_downloadable.html

Chose downloadable “no copyright “
Impressionist
Etc and after all filters addressed has to touch the circle arrow to the right of the URL at the top to complete the search/selection.

Anyway, as a self-taught artist that is convinced I cannot draw, I can use my iPad and Procreate App and use works from the greatest artists to learn how they worked.

This is a wonderful share!

Thank you so much CTYankeee

Wow
