I reckon you should do limited edition prints which we could pop into ikea frames and they could adorn Xmas mantles forever!

Going going ... last chance for any more Christmas card bids to raise money for Kids Company. The auction will close in half an hour and then we'll post the winning bids for each of the four original paintings. Thanks to everyone who has posted (and to anyone who's preparing to up the ante by sneaking in a cheeky last-minute bid ).
