Concha García Zaera was a Spanish digital artist who began using Microsoft Paint in her mid-seventies, after the smell of oil paint disturbed her ill husband. Working point by point with a mouse, she spent weeks constructing detailed landscapes inspired by photographs and postcards her husband had sent from his travels. Her granddaughter opened an Instagram account for her, and at 87 she became an unlikely star of pixel art. Disney later commissioned her to recreate the poster for Mary Poppins Returns entirely in Paint.
