New Year's Video Call © Oksana Vorob — Painting by Numbers

A laptop screen shows a video call with someone bundled up in a red-and-white winter hat and scarf, while a fir wreath trimmed with ribbon and baubles rests nearby, along with two plush gnome dolls in red pompom hats and red-and-white ornaments scattered across the blanket beneath.

• Cotton canvas on a wooden stretcher, printed with a numbered outline
• 3 brushes of different thickness
• Numbered acrylic paints
• Wall-mounting fixture for the finished painting

A gift for someone who marks the holidays with long-distance calls to family.
