Yes we are coming up to January 1st when things go
public domain in
the UK. I understand there will be a bit of a party. Fireworks and
suchlike.
My list of works that go PD is a bit short at the moment and mostly
focused on the your paintings thing but I hope to expand it a bit
before the new year:

The most prominent British writer to die in 1941 was Virginia Woolf,
so no doubt we'll see a spate of reprints by about March. Others
include Hugh Walpole (prolific but mostly forgotten), P. C. Wren
("Beau Geste"), A. G. Macdonell ("England, Their England"), H. E.
Marshall ("Our Island Story").
Non-fiction writers include Sir James George Frazer ("The Golden
Bough") and Evelyn Underhill (a major writer on Christian mysticism).
