First of all, this is hands down my favorite gift I've received from ANY exchange! This gift is above and beyond amazing.

My super awesome Santa did a little stalking and found my love for my favorite band, The National. She spent a lot of time trying to find an inspiring image, and settled on this one, from a gig poster circa 2007.

It's GORGEOUS! The photo does not do the painting justice. The colors are vibrant, the image is sharp, I LOVE IT! Making a stop at the hardware store so I can hang it ASAP.

Santa /u/BonerSoupTerry thank-you so much for this incredible gift. The time and effort you put into this blows me away. I'm so touched. This is my favorite gift this year. You're quite a talented artist and I would love to see your tattoo work sometime!

Sending lots of internet hugs while I gaze at my painting and dance along to Apartment Story by who else, The National!!!
