It’s fitting that this film about artistic inspiration and envy might itself inspire a few artists. So the Weinstein Company invited artists to create their own posters for the film, reflecting the eerie look of Keane’s works. The first poster, by Anne Benjamin for Mondo, goes on sale Friday at [MondoTees.com](http://mondotees.com/). The movie debuts Dec. 25.
