How would that really happen? It seems to me you're assuming that there's no such thing as extant databases of actual oil paintings, that people will stop producing, documenting, and curating said paintings. I think the internet a

Thank gosh I'm not the only one. I even kept the yellow legal pads I wrote them on, but they turned out to be useless. After two decades I scanned the interesting doodles and tossed the rest in the recycle.
