I scraped a dataset of public domain artwork from the internet and trained a modified version of DCGAN I wrote on different genres of art scraped. The scraper I wrote and the model weights are available to download in a sort of “model zoo”, so anyone can generate different types of oil paintings.
Code and more details here.
