I liked this project that showed this year at the Bumbershoot festival in Seattle.  Artists were invited to transform their choice of 'Paint by Numbers' paintings and came up with some interesting results.  It's a great idea, I'd quite like to do one for fun myself.  The results were mixed, I didn't love them all but I like the concept. These were a couple that worked well, the artists are as follows:

Mary Iverson - Before and after farm transformation

Jim Woodring - Bucolic covered bridge with added accident

Troy Gua - Ugly clowns transformation
