Big Eyed Kid Paintings For all your big eye needs. Scroll down. Aaaaggghhh!!!
Mah gawd.

Someone was actually willing to go to court to claim credit for these? To stand up and paint one for the public record?

Well, I kind of like the one with the pug.

Did you see the prices?! One or two are nudging $30k!

I actually quite like some of the 60s ones, in a Tretchikoff kitschy kind of a way, but if I saw one at a jumble sale I'd be haggling down to 50p, tops.

Troll dolls and big-eye paintings... MGL is bringing back parts of my early childhood, here.

(I kinda like the Siamese cat one.)

Oh good, I'm not the only one to admit there are a few there that are actually kinda nice.

I wonder if there's a big eye filter in photoshop and, if so, wouldn't that make for a truly awesome photo Friday?

Yeah, the troll dolls - the big eyes - it's all part of some strange plot. That I don't know about yet. ;-)

In CS2 you can find it under Filter > Liquify > Bloat

I'm sure it's been in previous versions as well.

My grandmother used to have fabulous big-eyed children dressed as harlequins hanging at the shore house. My grandfather sold the house fully furnished and would not let me take them. (Or the paint-by-numbers Last Supper that hung in the dining room.)

The new owners razed the place with everything still in it.
