Nintendo’s Animal Crossing: New Horizons is all the rage right now, and is keeping players entertained and relaxed during this trying period. Users love the customizability this game brings, down to their shirt patterns; Animal Crossing gives them a sense of control amid these crazy times.

If you’re on the lookout to jazz up your house and outfit, the J. Paul Getty Museum has over 70,000 ideas for you. As the museum remains closed to contain the coronavirus, players can now easily import the museum’s public domain art collection into the Animal Crossing: New Horizons game as patterns.

Notable pieces include work from Vincent van Gogh, Rembrandt, Claude Monet, and Édouard Manet.

You can use the Getty’s Animal Crossing Art Generator to get a masterpiece on board. Just look up an artwork, grab its QR code and scan it with the ‘NookLink’ tool in the Nintendo Switch Online app.

According to Polygon, the available selection isn’t limited to the Getty’s collection. You can also use the tool to import art from participating museums. But first, you’ll need to obtain the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) from the piece.

Find out more about the art generator and give it a go here.
