A dachshund with a striking merle dapple coat of black and gray stares directly outward against a soft turquoise background, its distinctive long ears splayed to either side and warm tan markings framing its dark nose. The composition centers the dog's face in a straightforward portrait style, capturing an alert, almost quizzical expression with an economy of detail that lets the dog's coloring take center stage. For a dog lover's bedroom, office, or entryway. Woven from soft polyester chenille with a non-slip backing and made to order, the artwork running across the surface. A room grounded underfoot by an independent artist's work.
