Painted Snapshot
With Gretchen traveling home today, there's no fear of her seeing this until I pick her up from the airport. I commissioned an artist to craft this portrait of Sprocket. Nice, huh? It got here yesterday, minutes after I received another package. If it'll fit in the trunk, I'll put it in there and surprise her when she goes to stow her suitcase. This is so cool, and I think she'll love it, too.

Awww, that's so cute! Looks just like him! Okay, so I've never seen him in 'person', but he sure looks like the dog I see in the photos and the short movies.

It looks like they take a photograph, import it into a program like Painter, razzle-dazzle it, and produce their interesting portraits.
The picture of Sprocket is a keeper. I think she'll like it.

Wow, what a cute Sprocket! I think it's a beautiful drawing (much more nicer than mine, that's for sure..)!
I'm sure Gretchen will love it!

No doubt Gretchen will love seeing her “baby” like that. What a cool gift!

That is an amazing picture of Sprocket! I've wanted to do something like that of my feather-baby Dolce but it's much too expensive for me! That hexadecimal piece is pretty darn cool too! I bet he could sell prints of that stuff on ThinkGeek or something similar.
