If you are looking for something really special to give to your dh or a really different portrait of your kids/pets, I suggest you try This
If you look in the gallery section you will see the picture of my dog, Ruby, at the bottom, which I had done for dh's birthday. It really is unusual and close up looks quite abstract, yet from a distance it looks just like a photo (it's acrylic on canvas). Diane's kids pictures are really amazing, I'm going to get one done of dd soon.
Just thought it made a lovely pressie and as you all have kids...
