my mom painted me Sideshow Bob holding a knife behind his back for my bday one year. she never watches the Simpsons but knows my sis and i love it. my sister also cross-stitched me several Marios and mushrooms from SMB3.
There's a guy on the Penny Arcade forums (LewieP, who also runs gaming blog [savygamer.co.uk]) whose mother has been taking requests for paintings and selling them for charity:
@Knoxximus (XBL/PSN): what is you were to paint your girlfriend. (not on paper, i mean paint her body) that hour will last the rest of all of your future lives.
@Robotic-Richard-Simmons: You can always get another girlfriend. But who when the Mom that paints teh Riddick portraits may ever be in this mood again!
