My sister-in-law, Jan Schowengerdt, made me and my husband (her brother, duh) the following painting--which she calls "Digital Cherries," appropriately enough--for Christmas:
At first I thought she had pulled a sprite from Mickey Mousecapade, à la Ashley Anderson, but it seems that's not the case. Rather, she found an image of two cherries on line, altered it, pixelated it and then used it as a reference while she recreated it (using acrylic paint) on a pencil-drawn grid.
Anyway, isn't it cool? We're going to hang it in our kitchen as soon as my husband can get around to it. (He's handy like that.)
Go here (and here) for a clearer and closer look at these "Digital Cherries."

It's so friggin cute! What a thoughtful present!
I know :) And to think she wasn't going to give it to us...
I am both jealous and delighted.
Thanks, SUIKA! Jan will be delighted to hear both reactions, I think :)
