Barry poses with his first ever portrait, given to him by one of Club Steve USA's finest.

<p>
An artistically talented member of Club Steve, who prefers to go by "Yorkie Girl", borrowed Barry from me one day. Soon, she returned with this portrait, which she said Barry could keep.
</p>
<p>
Barry was excited - he truly felt like a star. "Look at me, Steve!"
</p>
<p>
And he should be excited - most people never get to see such a fine portrait made of themselves. He is one lucky stuffed animal.
</p>
<p>
But sometimes, fame changes people. I worry about Barry getting a big head...
</p>
<p>
...but anyone who's seen a portrait of the guy knows it's far too late for that.
