A scruffy, wire-haired dog sits frontally with dark ears and patches contrasting against a soft cream coat, rendered in loose, expressive ink strokes that capture both its unkempt charm and gentle expression. The minimal composition on a warm beige ground emphasizes the dog's personality through gestural linework rather than detail, creating an intimate portrait that feels both candid and affectionate. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
