There is a competition on this site to win a sketching easel, which I would
very much like to win.
It's a shockwave cryptic crossword & there are 4 I'm stuck on & I would be
very grateful for some help.

Across 9 & Down 22 It houses a big collection of Abstract art in New York
(10,6)
_U_G_N_E_M MUSEUM

Across 16 Taking a great deal of time like the massive Bayeux Tapestry? (7)
_E_G_H_

Across 19 This oil painting technique starts with dirty film! (9)
_C_M_L_ _ _

Down 18 Not all drawing resembles this French classical draughtsman (6)
_ _ _R_S

Thanks in advance.
Linda

Across 16 Taking a great deal of time like the massive Bayeux Tapestry?
(7)
_E_G_H_

LENGTHY

Across 19 This oil painting technique starts with dirty film! (9)
_C_M_L_ _ _

SCAMBLING I think, not 100%, prehaps someone could confirm

Down 18 Not all drawing resembles this French classical draughtsman (6)
_ _ _R_S

Can we have some more letters with the clues above? Else I'm lost.
