Best Wedding Gift
I received this piece from my wife for our wedding, and it's easily my favorite piece. It's done by Robert Atkins and is full of little details that reference our relationship and the characters. I first met Robert when I was starting to get into collecting art, and I've kicked myself every since for not getting something nice done by him, and I never had any luck getting ahold of him via email for a comission. Thankfully she was able to pull it off!

Awww that's so sweet. Great art and great memories too. Can't beat that!
And I'm not sure how long ago the wedding was -- but congrats!
I wish my boyfriend loved comic commissions like I do, but its ok because we have so many other things in common. It's just hard for me to hint at commission gift ideas

It's taken years of hints to get her to finally realize that a sketch is always a great gift. This one was definitely worth all the hints I've put in over the past three years!

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Fantastic piece that shows a mate who gets it. If I got a Snake Eyes piece from any of my exes I'd be worried it was a message that the perfect man doesn't say a word lol. Glad you finally got a great piece by Robert.
