Remember when you used to take art classes and everyone told you that you were super talented and some day you were going to make it big? Linnea Strid is like that except she didn’t get kicked out of the most lax arts program in the country like we did. True story. She reunites oil paint or pencil with plywood, wood panel, canvas, or whatever else is around in some of the most stunning photorealistic paintings and drawings. Even though she’s leagues beyond all of us in terms of skill, there’s something about four drunks, a dog, and a table full of beer (Carlsberg in her case) – or a cold shower with clothing – that we can all relate to. They might not be available for purchase on ye olde Internets, but we’re content basking in their awesomeness.

Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
